Diocesan Spelling Bee Requirements and Information
Day/Date: May 16, 2018
Time: 11:30 - end of the bee!
Location: Saint Louise de Marillac
310 McMurray Road
Pittsburgh, PA 15241
Schools wishing to participate in the Diocesan Spelling Bee must do the following:
1. Complete and submit to Lisa Whisker a School Registration Form by March 1, 2018. The fax is (412)
835-2898 and the email address is [email protected] and complete and submit to Lisa
Whisker a Student Registration Form by April 1, 2018. The fax is (412) 835-2898 and the email
address is [email protected]. Any correspondence can also be sent via U.S. mail to
Lisa Whisker c/o St. Louise de Marillac School, 310 McMurray Road, Pittsburgh, PA 15241
2. Choose ONE Fourth, Fifth or Sixth grade student to represent the school for the Diocesan Spelling
Bee. The school may decide how to select this student. The selection method may be using report card
grades, teacher recommendation/s or a local spelling bee. The local spelling bee is the recommended
method because it also provides the student with experience before an audience.
3. An alternate student may be selected and sent to the bee. In case of an emergency the alternate student
may participate in the bee.
4. Remind your student participant to arrive no later than 11:30 a.m. in order to register and receive a
seat assignment for the bee. The bee will begin promptly at 12:00 noon so students must be on time.
