The 2019 Brookline Education Foundation 5th Grade Spelling Bee took place on Sunday, March 10, 2019.
The first place winner in our March 2019 Spelling Bee was Owen Bergstein from Pierce School. The winning word was “supercilious.”
Congratulations to our winner and to all the students who participated in our Bee!
How does the Children’s Spelling Bee work?
The Children’s Spelling Bee is an “old-fashioned” spelling bee with the spellers taking turns, each spelling a different word. Once a speller misspells one word, he or she is out of the Bee. Prizes are awarded to the winners and each speller receives a certificate for participating. For details on how the Bee works, see Spelling Bee Rules and Procedures.
