Rollingwood Spelling Bee 2014

The top 30 students spellers in 4th and 5th grades were  invited to participate in the Rollingwood Annual Spelling Bee today.  The bee is sponsored by The Scripps National Spelling Bee with schools participating from throughout the US.  The bee went 10 rounds with the winner and runner-up coming from Ms. Schwarzbach's class.   Joshua Lopez came in first and Yoochan Lee second.  Joshua will now participate in the written semi-finals at Lawrence Hall at UC Berkeley on February 22nd.   I would like to congratulate all of our students for their fine effort.
