SPELLING BEE

Redwood Falls-SWWC Service Cooperatives Regional Spelling Bee was held on Wednesday, February 10 at the Redwood Area Community Center in Redwood Falls.  Thirty one students, who won at their local level, came together to compete for the top four places that advance to the Multi-Region State Spelling Bee.  The scores from a written round and three oral rounds were combined in order to determine the top 15 students who compete in the afternoon spell-down.  Due to the ties there were 21 participants in the spell-down.  The top four students advanced to the Multi-Region State Spelling Bee on February 22nd in Fergus Falls.  
First place went to Kalea Appel, an eight-grader from Worthington Middle School.  Representing Lester Prairie was 6th grader Delaney Sebora.  Sebora placed sixth overall in the Bee after winning the local school bee.  Good job Delaney.
