The thrilling pinnacle of Bee Week – the Championship Finals – finally came to an end Thursday night. Very proud of my students Shradha, who ended with a dazzling 3rd place finish, and Pranav, who placed 10th. Happy that they could reap the fruit of their extraordinary hard work over the year. I would also like to congratulate Dev Shah on winning the coveted Scripps Trophy this year – well deserved. Heartwarming to hear that my book, Defining Success, played a role in his growth as a speller.
