Spelling Bee Winners
On the evening of April 12th, Wilson Elementary held its annual 1st and 2nd Grade Spelling Bees. The 1st grade students competed against each other, then the 2nd grade students had their own spelling bee and competed against other 2nd graders. Each classroom sent four spelling bee nominees to compete in the contests. After battling through several grueling rounds of competition, three students were awarded 3rd, 2nd, and 1st grade winners of the first and second grades. The students all worked hard and did their best. We're all very proud of our spelling contestants at Wilson Elementary. --Thanks - Lee Ann (4/20/2012)
