Seventh-grader Lawson Smead writes a word on his arm as he thinks through how to spell it aloud during the seventh-grade spelling bee Jan. 19 at Patton Junior High School. The top two spellers from each English class participated in the bee to determine who will represent the school in the county bee next month. Lawson won the seventh-grade spelling bee and will continue on to the county bee. Eighth-grader Gabe Buss will also represent Patton at the county bee. Sixth-grader Kaitlyn Linney and fifth-grader Makenna Brunson will represent MacArthur Elementary School, and sixth-grader Mason Nicks and fifth-grader Ana Golden will represent Bradley Elementary School in the Leavenworth County Spelling Bee.
