UPDATE for 2012-2013 year:
This year's Homeschool Spelling Bee open to all homeschooled students living in the Times Union newspaper circulation area will take place on Saturday December 1, 2012.
The homeschool bee will take place at Calvary Church 1230 Rugby Road in Schenectady at 10 a.m. Spellers should arrive by 9:45 to register and get preliminary instructions.
Spellers do NOT need to register in advance. We ask that parents of spellers contribute $2 per speller (maximum of $5 per family) to contribute towards the cost of heating the building for the bee and to provide a small prize for our winner and runner-up.
Excellent free study materials from the Scripps Spelling Bee are available here.
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about our homeschool spelling bee are available here.
The FAQ will answer many of your questions about your students' eligibility to participate, how to prepare, and what happens next for the winner of our homeschool bee.
If you have additional questions after reading our FAQ, please feel free to contact me.
