The mission of the Alcott Spelling Bee is to create a joyful, inclusive, and confidence-building experience that celebrates language learning and teamwork. By participating in grade-level teams of 2–4 students, children support one another, take healthy risks, and grow as spellers in a low-pressure environment. The Spelling Bee is designed to spark curiosity, foster collaboration, and nurture a love of words — ensuring that every child feels valued, encouraged, and proud of their effort.
