Academic Spell Bowl
Indiana Academic Spell Bowl
Unlike the traditional oral spelling contest, teams use one representative per round to write the spelling words. Winning teams are named based on the cumulative total of correctly spelled words of all members. Junior and Senior teams have the opportunity to qualify for a State Finals competition held at Purdue University.
