The 2013 Spelling Bee will take place Sunday, March 24th, 12:30-5pm at Wayland High School. The Spelling Bee is the largest fund raising event for the Wayland Public Schools Foundation, welcoming over 400 elementary bee participants, 70+ community volunteers, and over 1200 guests.
The Wayland Public Schools Foundation has established a tradition of innovation in our schools by funding grant proposals submitted by Wayland teachers and staff for cutting-edge programs that would otherwise go unfunded. Often the foundation provides the seed money for new teaching approaches that take root and spread to other classrooms. This is possible only through generous community support, business giving programs, and fundraising events.
Registration for the Bee is online here. Registration is February 4th – February 24th and is $30 per speller. Late Registration is February 25th – March 1st and is $40 per speller. The Bee is open to students in grades 2 through 5. Bee rounds are 20-25 minutes. Specific team times will be announced the week before the bee. Children form teams of three (with all three children in the same grade).
Online registration is by individual, but you will need your child’s team name and other team members’ names to register. Full and partial scholarships are available.
