Congratulations to 7th grader - Lila Wolf - HTS Scripps Spelling Bee Champ

The National Spelling Bee began in 1925 when nine newspapers joined together to host a spelling bee. Little did they know that more than 90 years later their literacy effort would reach 11 million students each year.

For over 50 years, the Bee and Merriam-Webster have worked together to bring interesting, meaningful words to the best spellers across the country.

6th through 8th students at Harmony Township School participated in the Scripps National Spelling Bee on Friday, January 13th.

Harmony Township School is proud to announce
our 1st Place winner, 7th grader - Lila Wolf. 
Lila will advance to the 3rd Annual Diamond City Regional Spelling Bee
at Wilkes-Barre Area High School auditorium March 12, 2023 at 2pm. 

Lila Wolf - Spelling Bee Champ

The 3rd Annual Diamond City Regional Spelling Bee will include qualifying spellers from schools in Northeastern Pennsylvania, the Lehigh Valley, and parts of New Jersey.

Congratulations LILA!
Best of Luck at the regional spelling bee!
