August 23 - September 1

An eclectic group of mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of words, hoping to never hear the soul crushing “ding” of the bell that signals a mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves. And the losers only get juice boxes.
