Wellesley 5th graders spell it out at elementary school-wide Bee

April 7, 2021 by admin Leave a Comment

The Wellesley Central Council of Parent Teacher Organizations ran its first Wellesley Public Schools 5th Grade Spelling Bee for spellers from all seven bricks-and-mortar schools and Remote Learning School. The competition began with preliminary rounds and ended with finals. A total of 70 5th graders participated.

Sprague School, Wellesley
Top spelling bee honors went to students from Remote Learning School and Sprague School.

Judges included PTO presidents and  elementary school principals.

During the final round, three spellers from each school competed for the top  honors. And the winners are…

1st place winners (tied)

Cole Delgado (from RLS)
Ranting Lan (from RLS)

The two battled it out round after round until finally a tie was declared. The final word was INVESTIGATION, spelled correctly by both in the 62nd word of the finals.

2nd place winner

Darren Peng (from Sprague)

Congratulations to the top dawgs and all  participants.
