Registration is now open for the 2025 ECU – A Division of WFCU Credit Union Scripps Regional Spelling Bee! Registration is FREE for the first 25 educators who register (valued at over $200).
To register your school or find out more information about the ECU Scripps Regional Spelling Bee, please email communityinvestment@wfcu.ca. The deadline to enroll is December 20, 2024.
Part of Inspire – ECU’s community engagement program – the Bee promotes literacy and language arts in a fun and engaging way and provides area youth from grades 1 to 8 the opportunity to compete for a chance to represent the Waterloo Region at the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
No matter how your school chooses to determine a spelling bee champion, all champions from enrolled schools will move forward in the ECU Regional Spelling Bee. This year’s Regional Spelling Bee is scheduled for Sunday, February 23, 2025, at the Kitchener Public Library Theatre. The winner of the ECU – A Division of WFCU Credit Union Scripps Regional Spelling Bee will represent our region at the 2025 Scripps National Spelling Bee in Maryland and will be awarded various prizes!
The Bee helps students improve their spelling, increase their vocabularies, learn concepts, and develop correct English usage that will help them all their lives. In addition to the academic benefits, students also develop important life skills – such as goal setting, time management, and public speaking – that will help them as they advance in school and eventually to successful careers.
