Educational Foundation again hosting Champion Spelling Bee

The Daingerfield Lone Star Educational Foundation will once again be hosting their Annual Spelling be on Jan. 29. The Spelling Bee serves a fundraiser for the Foundation, which uses the funds to fund teacher grants. In 2015, the Foundation funded teacher grants that totaled over $13,000. Those grants then benefit the teachers and students in Daingerfield-Lone Star ISD. Teams consist of three members and one alternate, and the entry fee is $25. Anyone interested in placing a team in the Spelling must submit an entry form to Texas Heritage National Bank by Friday, Jan. 23. Teams are also invited to bring their cheering squad, as the 2016 Spirit Award will be up for grabs. This award will be given to the most innovative and enthusiastic cheering squad, and table decorations are encouraged and included in the judging.
