3rd Grade Spelling Bee

On January 25, 2013 Sierra Bonita held its school wide 3rd grade spelling bee. We are very grateful to our two PTA representatives, Bobbie Bassett and Sasha Taylor, as well as Dr. Walton and Karen Payne, from the community, who volunteered to be on our judge’s panel. Two representatives from each of our four classes were chosen to participate. All eight of these wonderful spellers came very prepared having obviously studied and practiced. Our 3rd grade classes were a great audience and very supportive of their classmates. The spellers were nervous yet confident and did so well that the spelling bee lasted 24 impressive rounds. We’d like to give big congratulations to Jaden Davids who took 1stplace, Xander Hulse who took 2nd place, and Makenna Dockter who took 3rd place. We are already looking forward to our 4th - 6th grade spelling bee which will take place on February 22nd and encourage all those students to prepare early for that great event.
