| The 2011 Spelling Bee was held Friday, April 1. The 10 third and fourth grade students who participated in the 'Bee' included John Michael Del Rosso, Tatiana Lucs, Liam O'Farrell, Charlotte Russell, Rachel Wolff, Justin Choi, Jack Reddington, William Schwing, Alexandra Siemers, and Remy Toscano.
A panel of judges consisting of Mrs. Sjurset, Mrs. Feigenbaum, Mrs. Rosenthal, Mrs. Sanchez, and Mrs. Lorbert led the contest. This year's Spelling Bee lasted 16 rounds, and challenged students to spell many difficult words such as vanilla, radar, wholesale, and geranium.
