On behalf of everyone in the Kennedale Independent School District, please join us in congratulating the winners of the most recent Spelling Bee Competition at R.F. Patterson Elementary Schools, Cohen Edwards, who took first place, Liam Chimarys, who took 2nd place, and Addison Jarvis, who finished in 3rd place. The excitement leading up to the actual event demonstrated the importance of literacy and spelling skills, and all students did a fantastic job in preparation. The importance of spelling, in addition to the value of demonstrating skills in a fun, friendly, and competitive environment, was on full display. Building leadership would like to congratulate all of the homeroom winners, who did a fantastic job recently in the competition. Way to go, everyone!
