This week our students participated in our annual Scripps National Spelling Bee. Congratulations to all participants for taking on something that is not required to improve their spelling, vocabulary, public speaking, articulation, poise and writing skills. All participating students are achievers going above and beyond expectations of the curriculum.

After 21 rigorous rounds, we have our top three winners!

Third Place, Mayuri Perumal

Second Place, Aryan Bansal

First Place, Simran Bassi

Simran Bassi, Clarendon School's 2023 Spelling Bee Champion, will be competing at The Hudson County Spelling Bee on Saturday, February 4, 2023.
