The 2024 Scripps National Spelling Bee is in full swing, bringing together the brightest students from all over the United States and beyond to compete in the prestigious competition. Hosted at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Maryland, the annual event has been a tradition since its inception in 1925, now in its 96th year.
