On February 5th, 15 of Port Jervis Middle School's top spellers competed in the annual PJMS Spelling Bee. The winners, and their winning words, were:
- 6th grade: Mei Bianco - nomad
- 7th grade: Lilianna Perez - whittled
- 8th grade: Sofia Muratovic - dictatorship
Sofia and Lilianna now advance to the Orange-Ulster BOCES Regional Spelling Bee in March. The winner of that bee earns an opportunity to be a part of the Scripps National Spelling Bee in May, in Washington, DC.
Congratulations to the winners and all of the students who participated!
