and 8th grade) from the Coeur d'Alene School District will represent the
district at the regional competition held at North Idaho College. Regional Spelling Bee participants will need to provide
their own transportation. Glenda Armstrong is the coordinator for
the district spelling bee.

An Awards Assembly is held at the end of each semester. Anyone who has put a ticket in the jar is eligible to win. Many different prizes are distributed to the winners, along with a grand prize at the very end of the assembly.

If you feel your child is a candidate for these programs, please see your counselor. In all three grade levels, curriculum compacting and cluster grouping occur in the overall academic program.
