Sean Wins County Spelling Bee
February 9, 2006
Today, Sean competed in the Santa Cruz County Spelling-Bee Championship. You may remember a previous post where I blogged about Sean winning his school’s spelling bee and qualifying for the county competition. The spelling bee is for middle school students in grades 3rd – 8th and is an open competition (not grade specific).
Once again, he has finished in 1st place. I think that’s quite an accomplishment beating 8th graders since Sean is only in 4th grade!!! By virtue of his championship today, he has now qualified to compete in the Arizona State Spelling Bee Championship in early April in Phoenix. Sounds like a family roadtrip. As it turns out, the county will also pay for our gas to get to Phoenix, lodging and some per diem. Not a bad deal since we would go anyways. :teeth:
I will let you know how the April competition turns out and whether or not a larger road trip is required.

Just thought I would pass along some good news about Sean. At his school today, they had the spelling bee championship and he ended up winning for the school. The competition was for grades 1 – 6. Sean is in fourth grade and won the whole thing. Now he gets to go on to the regional competition. I will post how that turns out.
