    FRAMINGHAM, MA – The 20th Annual Framingham Education Foundation Adult Spelling BEE will be held on Wednesday, November 16, 2011 at 7:00 p.m. at Cameron Middle School, (215 Elm Street  Framingham, MA).

    The event is one of the major fundraisers to support the grant program the Framingham Education Foundation sponsors to fund innovative and exciting programs in classrooms in the Framingham Public School system.

    A few months ago, we ran the article,”Good Words Wanted by Framingham Education Foundation“, when they were looking for suggestions for the 1000 word list that’s prepared each year so contestants can study the words they may be asked to spell.

    This year’s list is now complete — and teams are forming!  This is an adult team spelling bee — businesses, schools, organizations, or any (3) adults can be(e) a team, (team registration fee is $350 — 100% of all fees go towards education programs in Framingham Public Schools!).

    Use the links below to download sponsor or team registration form and word lists, (list is available in MS-Word or Adobe PDF format).
