How do you Spell Excitement? S-p-e-l-l-i-n-g B-e-e
There is an inherent sense of drama and suspense in a spelling bee, and that was certainly the case on Wednesday, December 2nd as more than 20 MBS Middle School students took center stage in Founders Hall to battle it out in the annual spelling bee.
One by one, the students approached the microphone to stand in front of an eerily silent audience and wrestle with words like “unscrupulous.” When the smoke cleared, six Middle Schoolers were left standing and will represent Morristown-Beard School at Delbarton School next week in a competition against other area students.
Congratulations to eighth grader Sean McNamara, seventh grader Tyler Smith, and eighth grader Ashley Young, who will comprise Morristown-Beard’s “varsity” team of spellers. The MBS “junior varsity” team will include seventh grader Dylan Iuzzolino, eighth grader Morgan Osburn, and seventh grader Tim Sanford.
They will compete at Delbarton from 9 a.m. to noon on Wednesday, December 9th.
