On March 9, 2023 at Grand County High School in Moab students from throughout the region participated in the Southeast Education Service Center regional spelling bee. All the contestants prepared for this year’s Bee by studying thousands of words, hoping to take top honors at the Region Bee. The top three District spellers, plus Pinnacle Academy, grades 4 through 8 advanced to the Region Bee from bees held in their local schools and districts earlier this year.
Luke Jeppesen, 8th grader from Albert R. Lyman Middle School in San Juan School District, earned the designation as top speller after a competitive twelve rounds in the annual Southeast Education Service Center Regional Spelling Bee. As winner, Luke will get to compete at the Scripps National Spelling Bee in National Harbor, Maryland. Luke began the bee correctly spelling words such as: gotcha, spindle, sailage, docket, collie,and pitiful. Some of his other words included: existence, hipsterism, merchandise, and redemption.
Second place speller Cadi Heaton, 7th grader from Mont Harmon Middle School, gave Luke a run for his money as they went head to head for 4 rounds. Cadi misspelled “irritability.” At this point Luke correctly spelled “posterity”, and finally the championship word “caboodle.”
Jaivery Pitchforth from San Rafael Middle School, returning for her second year to the regional bee, had a great showing with a 3rd place finish.
Sponsored by the Southeast Education Service Center, this year’s Region Bee was held at Grand County High School. Thanks to Jessie Magleby from Grand County Public Library, who was this year’s pronouncer. Johnna Boyack and JoLynn Torgerson served as judges. The Region Bee is a preliminary competition in the Scripps National Spelling Bee held during Bee Week May 28–June 2, 2023 in National Harbor, Maryland.
