GBE Spelling Bee

Spelling Bee Winners

Our GBE Spelling Bee always demonstrates how all GBE students are an exemplary group of children.   The audience was quiet, respectful, and engaged for over an hour and a half in watching the bee.   All of the twenty contestants battled valiantly.  At the end, Vidula Bharath, Nadia Corea, and Sirena Stoddard continued to persevere, but Vidula Bharath was ultimately declared the GBE Champion.  Congratulations to all of our spelling bee participants.  All students were able to spell words that many adults would have had trouble recognizing much less spelling.
