Rohith

Congratulations to Rohith '28, Norfolk Academy's 2023 Spelling Bee champion who on February 11 won the WHRO regional Spelling Bee!

Rohith beat out more than 40 other outstanding spellers to earn the regional crown. His winning word? Anathema - something or someone intensely disliked.

With the victory, Rohith advances to national Bee Week, which will be held in late May and early June in Maryland. The Scripps National Spelling Bee champion will be crowned to this event.

Because other bees are still going on around the country, WHRO cannot yet broadcast its competition. It is scheduled to air in April. 

Great job, Rohith!
