The Spelling Bee, which happened on Friday, February 11th in the BASS class, was one of the biggest events of the month. The whole ‘A’ corpus participated, which means, there were many disappointed faces. The Spelling Bee was organized by two of the school’s favourite teachers: Raymundo Aguirre and Monika Grigaliūnienė.
I heard from one of the finalists, 5th grader Evita Ramanauskaitė, that she witnesses teary-eyed faces. A fellow 8th grader, Tautvydas Anilionis, told me, “My sister worked all day and all night practicing the word list. You’d better believe she was disappointed when she didn’t make it through the first round.” Shame, isn’t it?
There were three Class Champs but after all, there can only be one winner. Let’s learn a bit about them. Dominyka Juškaitė was the fifth grade champ. Evita, who used to be a ballerina, is the kind and opinionated 6th grade Spelling Champ. Sniegė Čiukšytė, former classmate of Evita, told me she’s best friends with classmate Simona. The 7th – 8th grade winner was Sir Jogaila Pūras. The 8th grade class describes him as a musician, artist, Polishman, as well as an average anime enthusiast and enjoyer of Aphex Twin.
