Sixth grader Mackenzie Anderson made her mark earlier this year by winning the Intermediate Spelling Bee in January, correctly spelling the challenging word purloined in Round 20. Runner-up Vickie Liu also had an outstanding performance, showcasing her skill and dedication.
Mackenzie went on to represent our district at the South Texas Regional Spelling Bee, held here in Flour Bluff on February 28th. She competed against more than 80 students from grades 3 through 8 across the Coastal Bend and fought her way into the top ten competitors.
We are incredibly proud of Mackenzie and Vickie’s accomplishments and look forward to cheering them on in future spelling competitions!
