What is Great American SpellCheck?
Return to category: Great American SpellCheck
Great American SpellCheck is a program that erases the objections that you have to traditional fund-raisers. It's a fund-raiser that:
- makes sure 100% of the money raised benefits your school,
- involves no students knocking on the doors of strangers and
- is rooted in academics.
Students study grade-specific word lists and collect pledges from family and friends for every word they spell correctly in the Great American SpellCheck.
Schools enrolled in the
Scripps National Spelling Bee receive access to:
- Study words for students
- Pronouncer guides
- Rules
- Certificates and more
