This is a picture of Greg receiving his certificate after the Spelling Bee
The Athens School District puts on a Spelling Bee for local 3rd and 4th graders as preparation for the "official" Spelling Bee that 5th graders are given the opportunity to participate in (the one where they can go all the way to D.C.). The top 2 "spellers" in each 3rd and 4th grade class across the district are brought together for a Spelling Bee. Greg received the most points in his class after a series of mini spelling bees and was chosen to represent his class along with the second highest scoring student. The Spelling Bee for all the district classroom "champs" was last Wednesday. Out of 37 students, Greg came in 8th. His word was "longitude" and he missed the e on the end! He was so close! Had he spelled that word correctly, I'm positive he would have went on to be in the top 2 or 3. Below is a video clip of Greg spelling "frequently".
