This year, Veritas had a tremendous showing at the District ACSI Spelling Bee which was hosted at First Baptist Academy in Baytown. Mrs. Wright, who was this year's Spelling Bee coordinator, helped our students practice and prepare for the event. Of the six participants (one per grade level from 3rd-8th grades), two students finished in the top 4 of the final spell off to qualify for the ASCI Regional Spelling Bee in Plano! Below is the list of this year's participants
