CESA 7 Regional Spelling Bees
Four regional spelling bees are facilitated by CESA 7, in conjunction with the Wisconsin State Journal (held late January/early to mid-February). Regional winners advance to the Badger State Spelling Bee and the state winner advances to the Scripps National Spelling Bee held near Washington, D.C. (late May/early June). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scripps Enrollment Information
In order to participate in the CESA Regional Spelling Bee, each public, private, parochial, charter, virtual, and home school association must enroll with and pay a $115 per school enrollment/materials fee to the Scripps organization in order to participate. The regular enrollment period has ended. The late enrollment period is October 16 through December 14, 2012. However, there is a late enrollment fee of $75 per school.
If a school enrolled last year, Scripps emailed the key spelling bee contact person an invitation to enroll through a link unique to that school. Clicking that link pre-fills the enrollment form with the school's basic information. Schools may also enroll at www.spellingbee.com
CESA 7 is informed of the schools that enroll
with Scripps and will only send out the necessary forms/information for
participation in the regional spelling bee to those enrolled schools. Students
that are in grades 3-8, from schools that have enrolled with Scripps, are
eligible to compete (one student per
school).
