MORE UPCOMING EVENTS: On Saturday, May 30, 2015 A District-Wide Bilingual Spelling Bee Will Be Held at Clements High School

FORT BEND ISD – Students enrolled in Sequin Elementary’s Bilingual Program recently competed to advance to Fort Bend ISD’s District-wide Bilingual Spelling Bee. Twenty-five students from Sequin Elementary participated in this year’s Bilingual Spelling Bee on May 15. Top spellers will now move on to compete against students from throughout the District on May 30. 

Prior to Seguin’s event, contestants in third and fourth-grade studied words from a list that was provided to them. During the spelling bee, the contestants had to spell the word in Spanish, translate it and then spell the word in English, with improper spelling or translation leading to elimination. 

Third-grade student John Chavez won first place in the Sequin competition and Izabella Rivas, a fellow third-grader, came in second. Fourth-grade student Vanessa Barrientos placed third. Third-grade Bilingual Teacher Maria Araujo coordinated the event.
