Academic Spell Bowl
Indiana Academic Spell Bowl
Spell Bowl will be conducted virtually this year. Be sure to read the 2020 Coaches Handbook for the details and watch for emails from our office for updates.
Unlike the traditional oral spelling contest, teams use one representative per round to correctly spell the contest 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.
