GBW Spelling Bee

This year, we're kicking off our spelling bee journey with grade-level bees using Scripp's online testing platform. To participate, register your student(s) for the online testing platform by Thanksgiving (Nov 28) at https://online-test.spellingbee.com. The online test can be completed at home between December 2-13.  You must sign up your student!  Winners will advance to the junior or senior school bee.

All study lists are available in Schoology under your parent account. For extra practice, download the Scripps WordClub app and use the official study lists at spellingbee.com/word-club.

 

All bee competitions are optional and not a part of the school curriculum.  If a student is not interested, they do not have to participate.
