Dowagiac was well represented at the Lewis Cass ISD County Spelling Bee Meet which was held at Southwestern Michigan College.  Spelling Bee team members competing were from grade levels 4th -5th, 6th & 8th. At the 4th grade level: Simeon Schaller earned first place honors and Hunter Steiman placed second.  For the fifth through eighth grade bee, Tessa Deering tied for second place. As a district, Dowagiac earned 2nd place competing against all county schools. Congratulations to all of our Dowagiac Spelling Bee Participants.  Your hard work and extra studying was well worth it! Thank you to all the parents and Spelling Bee coaches throughout the district. We truly appreciate your dedication.
