Spelling Bee
The SBCEO Spelling Bee creates an opportunity for the County's most passionate lexophiles to come together and compete for the titles of Santa Barbara County Spelling Bee Elementary and Junior High Champions.
Students in grades 4-6 and grades 7-9 participate in written spelling competitions respectively. The top two winners in each division of the County Bee are invited to participate in the California State Spelling Bee in May.
