Dr. June McOmber

Junior High Spelling Bee

The Dr. June McOmber Junior High Spelling Bee brings the best spellers in the county together for a competition designed to promote and acknowledge exemplary student achievement. These seventh to ninth-grade students previously won school or district spelling competitions.

The final competition is held in March at Curtis Creek School. After the county championship, the winner and runner-up in both divisions will represent Tuolumne County at the State Spelling Championships.
