GMS SPELLING BEE 

On Tuesday, December 9th, GMS will host our schoolwide spelling bee. The spelling bee is held after school at 3:00 in the Middle School/High School cafeteria. The qualifiers from each grade level will compete against each other to determine our school wide champion. Our champion speller will move on to the qualifying round for the regional spelling bee as well as a chance to represent GMS in the county wide spelling bee. We wish all of our spellers the best of luck!
