Congratulations to Landon Horacek, an 8th grader from Haymon-Morris Middle School, for winning the 2022 District Spelling Bee! Landon will represent HMMS and the Barrow County School System at the District 3 competition at a date to be determined.
The runner-up is Ray Raymond, a 7th grader from Russell Middle School. If Landon is unable to compete in the District 3 competition, Ray will take his place as the BCSS representative.
We wish Landon good luck for the next round and congratulate all of our 2022 school level Spelling Bee champions and alternates!
