School Spelling Bee

Ready, Set, Spell!
Congratulations to the students pictured below who represented their classes at the annual Benson School Spelling Bee this month.



Special thanks to Mrs. Hillman, Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Champagne for judging the competition which was organized by Mrs. Laberi.

The competition at the spelling bee was fierce!! Ultimately Nhi (8C) spelled her way to victory by correctly spelling the word, 'elite'. Katilyn (7/8K) ran a close second, but was tripped up by the word 'stoic'. Nhi will be representing our school March 1 at the Regional Spelling Bee held at St. Thomas of Villanova Festival Theatre. Good luck Nhi!
