The Skyview Spelling Bee was a tremendous success! Of the 58 registered participants, 41 talented spellers took the stage, showcasing their skills and determination over nearly three hours and 12 intense rounds.
Our Skyview champion, Anahata Guha (7th Grade), who will proudly represent us at the Regional Championship, triumphed with the championship word "unciferous"! The runner-up, Aayush Rane (8th Grade), delivered an exceptional performance, providing stiff competition across five thrilling rounds but was finally bested by the word "lamasery." Third place was secured by Rithika Adulla (6th Grade) through a dramatic word-off against contestants Mukil Pasupathi, Prayaag Kalady, and Siddhesh Ayalasomayajula making for an exciting conclusion to the event.
A heartfelt thank you to our incredible pronouncers and judges —Ms. Nicole Maleki, Mr. Andrew Wright, Mr. Navarre Kerr, and Ms. Ashley Ross—for their dedication and support leading up to and during the event. We also deeply appreciate our volunteers for their timely assistance and the Skyview community for encouraging and cheering on our spellers.
Above all, we are proud of every participant who put in the effort, displayed courage, and competed with such grace and sportsmanship. The camaraderie and encouragement throughout were truly inspiring.
Congratulations to all the spellers for making this event such a remarkable success!
