Congratulations to all of our Spelling Bee Finalists who competed in the 2025-2026 John Hill School, Schoolwide Spelling Bee. You did a fantastic job! After five rounds, our champion was crowned. Winning the Bee was Riya Haidari (6th Grade), whose correct spelling of "cravenly " deemed her our champion. Coming in a close second was Joelle Brogan (6th Grade), and rounding out our top three was Eliza Tanis (8th Grade). Riya will continue in the Scripps Spelling Bee competition by taking a written preliminary spelling test. Please wish her well as she pursues qualifying for the Regional Bee this winter. Thank you to our Boonton PTA for sponsoring the event and presenting the awards to our spellers.
