Three students from the Sandy Creek Central School District were the top spellers in a grade 4-8 spelling bee held recently at the school. Students earned a spot in the oral bee after taking a written test earlier in the month. The local bee, coordinated by teacher Jodi Whitney, featured fifteen students vying for the top spots by spelling progressively more difficult words. The top three were fifth graders Matt Trudell (first), and Emma Halsey (second), and seventh grader Sadie Lurcock (third). Trudell, as top speller, moves on to the Post Standard/WCNY Spelling Bee to be held in January 2015. The spelling bee helps students improve spelling, increase vocabulary and proper English language usage, and the Scripps contest is the nation’s largest and longest-running spelling bee.
