We are just buzzing with excitement! MCAEL's Spelling Bee is back for a 10th year! Join us live on March 12, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m., at the Cultural Arts Center at Montgomery College.

Join MCAEL staff, board, providers, instructors, community leaders, local businesses, and adult learners for a fun, lively event to support English language programs in Montgomery County, Maryland.

Ready, Set, S-P-E-L-L!

Release your inner geek and cheer on teams as they compete in the Grown-Up Spelling Bee! The champion team for 2024 was BGE. Will they t-r-i-u-m-p-h or will another team buzz away with the victory?

What's the Buzz all about?

There are over 139,000 adults in Montgomery County who self-identify as speaking English “less than very well,” and English language programs across the county are struggling to meet this growing need. Your support makes more English language teaching and learning possible.

The Place to Bee:

Be a part of our hive of spectators and enjoy a fun night of food, cocktails, spelling, and p-h-i-l-a-n-t-h-r-o-p-y.

Invite your friends and colleagues, and help us spread the buzz!

Purchase a Letter!

If you want to make a bigger impact, please consider purchasing a letter! It’s a great way to market your business or honor a loved one while supporting MCAEL. Your letter purchase helps MCAEL reach and retain more learners.
