2016 Carroll County Schools Spelling Bee

The Carroll County Schools and Carroll County Association of Educators presented the 2016 Spelling Bee on January 29, 2016 at the Carroll County Board of Education J.M. Gammon Board Room. Eighteen students from Carroll County elementary and middle schools participated in this event. Jackson Sarna, an eighth grade student from Bowdon Middle School, took home first place in the spelling bee by correctly spelling the word “Babylonian”. Amanda Basant, a seventh grade student from Temple Middle School, finished with the second place title. By winning first place in the County Spelling Bee, Jackson is eligible to compete in the District 5 Spelling Bee. The 2016 District Spelling Bee for District 5 will be held on February 27, 2016, at North Atlanta High School in Atlanta, Georgia. We would like to thank our sponsors of this annual event, Carroll County Board of Education, Carroll County Association of Educators, Carroll EMC, West Georgia Technical College, Dairy Queen, Bank of North Georgia, Ozier Products, Inc., State Farm (Tony Brewer), SCRAP Bin, and Tanner Medical Center.
