On Wednesday, Allendale School hosted their annual spelling bee. Due to covid restrictions, students first competed in classroom spelling bees, then the top two students from each class continued to the school spelling bee. After fifteen rounds, Hallie Courter was declared the winner by spelling the word "followed" correctly. Hallie received a $25 Life Saver CD donated by The First National Bank of Allendale and she will continue to the regional spelling bee. The runner-up, Isaiah Courter, received a $10 cash prize donated by The Allendale School Student Council.
