SCRIPPS SPELLING BEE
The Kane County ROE is proud to be an official regional partner of the Scripps National Spelling Bee— the nation’s largest and longest-running educational program. As a regional partner, the ROE helps students discover a knack for spelling and passion for competition by providing a pathway from the classroom to the national stage.
The ROE provides opportunities for schools to register through Scripps to host their own spelling bees and send school champions on to various levels of competition, including the annual Kane County Regional Spelling Bee. The winner of this event is eligible to compete in the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
Champions from 27 schools competed in semifinal competitions in 2025 before eight participated in the Kane County Regional Bee.
Spelling Bee enrollment for the 2025-26 school year is open! If you have questions, contact Jordan Eggleson at jeggleson@kaneroe.org.
