____________ AN INTRODUCTION __________
WHO ARE WE?
Spelling Bee of Canada (SBOC) is an educational organization that encourages youth,parents, teachers and the community at large to participate in the education process.
WHAT DO WE DO?The SBOC organizes annual family of schools and communities spelling bees aimed at
children and youth 6-14 years of age. The participants are placed into one of three
categories, Primary age 6 to 8, Junior age 9 to 11 and Intermediate age 12 to 14 , to viefor cash, trophies and prizes, 15+ students will become mentors to participants in theirRegion.
WHY DO WE EXIST?
The Spelling Bee of Canada was established in response to a need within the community fora stimulating, educational programme, outside the regular school curriculum, which would
focus specifically on English language basics. The SBOC’s programmes are designed to
contribute to the development of our youth’s self esteem by creating pride in academicachievement and, in the process, help to build a solid foundation for their future educationand careers.
WHERE DO WE OPERATE?
The Spelling Bee of Canada was established in the greater Toronto area in 1987 and led tothe development of an Ontario Spelling Bee. SBOC is now unifying all the Provinces for aNational Spelling Bee. To date over 50,000 children have participated in the programme.
HOW DO WE OPERATE?
The SBOC is a registered charity (#890470198RR0001). The SBOC depends on localbusinesses, organizations and individuals to contribute time, materials, services and/or
funds.
WHAT IS OUR LONGTERM GOAL?
With the aid of technology, our strategy for growth over the next three years is to target allregions within each province to join the programme. Once regional programmes have been
established in all provinces, this will lead to Provincial Champions, who will then compete to
become National Champions. Based on extrapolations from the U.S National Spelling Beedata, SBOC’s long-term forecast is to attract one million participants across Canada.
