SPELLING BEE COMPETITION

On Wednesday, December 11th, Lester Prairie students in grades 5-8 participated in the school district spelling bee competition.  The eight finalists included two students from each grade.  The finalists were: Front Row:  Zach Jackson, Sophie Klitzke, Alexis Langenfeld, Joseph Blevins  Back Row:  Coach David Klitzke, Logan Krone, Michael Ziermann, Elizabeth Krienke, Drew Jackson.

  Students who were finalists, first participated in the two practice rounds, then on to the actual spelling bee.  The bee took a total of seven rounds and spellers were doing a wonderful job.  Coming through in the end was Logan Krone who outlasted Michael Ziermann to win the bee.  Logan will be participating in the Scripp's Regional Spelling Bee in Redwood Falls on February 11th, 2014.  Logan also did not spell a word incorrectly during the entire district bee contest.  Mr. Dave Klitzke, Ms. Houg, and Ms. Wojciechowski, and Mr. Schmidt participated as judges, moderators, readers, and coordinators of the event.  Photos were taken by Mrs. DeBruyckere.  Great job to the students and staff for a wonderful event.  Stay tuned for next weeks Geography Bee Final.
