Hello Everyone, I had the both privilege and the pleasure of attending a Spelling Bee on Saturday. It took place at Bogalusa City Hall and included students in 4th and 5th grades. The students seemed to enjoy competing as their families silently supported them by being present. I personally enjoyed students that I see during the week at work showcasing their love for phonics and spelling. All participants received certificates and those who “placed” received medals as well. You had to be there to appreciate the smiles of pride, from students and their families. Many Thanks to all the organizers of this wonderful event. #OurChildrenOurFuture
