CONGRATS TO ALL
A California g-schooler won the Scripps National Spelling Bee yesterday, successfully spelling words that I’ve never seen or heard.
Anurag, 13, of Poway clinched “appoggiatura,” a melodic tone, to take home some $30,000 in prizes.
Very nice. HEKs had a nice showing, too, with six in the final 27 and an overall second-place finish.
