Are you interested in being a part of the Dawson Middle School 2020-2021 Spelling Bee? The Spelling Bee qualifier will be held on December 2nd in the DMS library. We are offering times before school, during all three lunches and after school. The qualifiers will begin promptly at: 8:10, 11:40, 12:35, 1:30 and 4:00. This should provide plenty of opportunity for our DVA students interested in being a part of the Spelling Bee to come to campus. You only need to attend one qualifier. Those who qualify will attend the in-person Spelling Bee on December 15 at 8:45 a.m. Safety protocols will be in place. Dawson will send the winner to the Area Bee on February 4, 2021.
