Hi everyone,
I was a participant in the Scripps National Spelling Bee in 2012 and 2013. Are there any other previous Bee competitors out there?

My son (currently a 3rd year college student) came up just short of making the National event when he was in middle school. In Texas, we also have HS competitions that include spelling and vocabulary much like many states have debate or sports teams. He competed at a high level in that for 2 years as well. His ability to spell helped him along the way. He is a NMS and has had a very low cost education. Good luck and congrats.
@Torveaux I’m assuming you’re talking about UIL?
Yes. He placed in state UIL two years.
