Spelling Bee Showdown

The spelling bee finals that took place before winter break was a match to remember.

9 contestants battled their nerves and some extremely challenging words in front of an appreciative crowd in the auditorium.

After many rounds, the last two students standing were Daniel Agboola and Maryam Al Obaidi.

Daniel and Maryam volleyed words back and forth with blistering skill until Maryam finally won a round. She then hit the winning shot by spelling one more word correctly.

Daniel Agboola was the runner-up, winning a $25 gift card to Barnes and Noble, provided by the PTSA.

Maryam Al Obaidi is this year's spelling bee champion. She won a $50 Barnes and Noble gift card.

Maryam also earns the chance to represent Sweet Home Middle in the regional bee, and perhaps even take part in the national bee in Washington, D.C.
