Indian American tween wins Delaware State Spelling Bee contest
Annie Marie Eanes, the coordinator of the spelling bee, told Delaware State News that this was the longest competition that St. Mark’s High has hosted in 10 years.
An Indian American tween, Maanvi Sarwadi, won the annual State Spelling Bee content in Delaware with the word “phyton,” according to a Delaware State News report.
It took Sarwadi, a 12-year-old seventh-grader from Caravel Academy, four hours and 25 straight correct spellings to get the winning trophy in her hands.
