Every spring, the Catholic War Veterans Post 1182 sponsors its annual spelling bee. This contest has been in existence for over 40 years! Our 8th graders participate in an old-fashioned spell down to qualify for the contest. The spell down culminates with two winners who have the honor of representing Holy Rosary in the annual bee. Our two student representatives have one month to review the special word list provided by the Catholic War Veterans before competing in the competition. Holy Rosary has been fortunate to have back-to-back first place winners for the past two years, and a third place winner the year prior.
