Moorcroft K8 Parent Action Committee hosted the annual Crook County District Spelling Bee Thursday, February 17.
During the month of January, Moorcroft K8 held classroom spelling bees and the top spellers from each classroom advanced to the Crook County District Spelling Bee, which was divided into two divisions.
The winners of the first through third grade division were Lincoln Townley (second grade), winning first place; Ryland Johnson (third grade), second place; and Eva Schmuesser (third grade), third place.
The winners from the fourth through eighth grade division were William Riddle (sixth grade), who won first place; Quentin Knapp (sixth grade), second place; Truck Lowrey (eighth grade), third place; and Eva Schmuesser (third grade), fourth place. The top four winners will represent this district in the State Spelling Bee in Rock Springs on March 18.
The Scripps National Spelling Bee is about much more than spelling, word origins and correct pronunciation. It's about inspiring confidence and a love of language that lasts a lifetime.
The Scripps National Spelling Bee is a tradition that began in 1925 with the vision of supporting eager and enthusiastic spellers.
Every year, we watch in awe as spellers take the stage and spell their words confidently and calmly. We recognize the determined look in their eye or the nervous tilt of their head, and we are there, cheering them on with every letter they say.
