Golden Elementary School’s classroom-level spelling bees were held in each 4th through 6th grade classrooms in October. The top two winners in each class advanced to Golden’s School Spelling Bee held on Thursday, November 30.<\/p>\n

The “Bee” was supposed to be held outside. However,\u00a0due to a\u00a0rainstorm,\u00a0the school had to create a\u00a0“plan B for the Bee”.\u00a0In total,\u00a028 students competed in the Multi-Purpose Room with parents and\u00a0fellow students in the audience.<\/p>\n

Principal, Dr. Alison DeMark and assistant principal, Mrs. Kristin McDonald set up a “Google Hangout” so that all 4th through 6th-grade classes could watch the bee via webcam in their classrooms for the first time ever.<\/p>\n

After\u00a0nine rounds of competition, three students placed in each grade level. Here’s\u00a0the list:<\/p>\n

4th Grade<\/strong>
\n1st – Shrihun Andhe
\n2nd – Izan Hsu
\n3rd – Dahee Lee<\/p>\n

5th Grade<\/strong>
\n1st – Micah Lee
\n2nd – Kaitlyn Chung
\n3rd – Yatin Alla<\/p>\n

6th Grade<\/strong>
\n1st – Surina Borbor
\n2nd- Samuel Choi
\n3rd – Henry Kong<\/p>\n

All of these students qualify for the\u00a0Spelling Bee hosted by the R.E.A.C.H. Foundation<\/a><\/span> in the spring.<\/p>\n

Golden’s top three 6th graders will also advance to the Orange County Department of Education’s Scripp’s Spelling Bee on February 25 and March 2. Mrs. Cooan will begin practicing for the competition with Surina, Samuel, and Henry next week.<\/p>\n

Great job, spellers!<\/p>\n
