Blogger's Note: The following was provided by the Pottstown School District
The event was held at Pennridge Central Middle
School, Perkasie, PA.
Sponsored by CAPS (Council for the Advancement of Public
Schools). 60 students entered, with the champion earning a week-long trip to the
2016 Scripps National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C.
Amari Folly, an 8th
grader from Pottstown Middle School, was 1 of 23 students to make it to the 4th
round. She spelled three words correctly prior to being eliminated in the 4th round
and finishing 23rd out of 60.
Along with her parents, Chris Petro (Amari's
former Math Lab Teacher at Pottstown Middle School) and Kim Petro
(Amari's 7th grade Language Arts Teacher at Pottstown Middle School and organizer and announcer for the annual Middle School Spelling Bee) were in
attendance to support Amari.
