Student participants will register from 7:15 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. At 8:30 a.m., the local school spelling winners will first compete in a written spelling bee contest.

The top 12 spellers from the written bee then will compete in the public oral bee. Last year's bee produced a three-time winner Asad Ladhani, a student at North Gwinnett Middle School.
