It's not too late to sign up for our International Spelling Bee. If you are interested in competing in the Spelling Bee, please register at the front desk/ Sign-ups started on Wednesday, June 15 and end on June 29.

Sorry Scrabble players, in this case, proper nouns are allowed! If you'd like to study up on spelling words, we recommend books about geography and geology, including place names of many countries and cities. Check out the books in the Dewey Decimal 900's section of the non-fiction collection.
