For the first round, teachers in grades 4-6 conduct their own bee in their room to determine a student who will represent the class. The second round consists of the winners of each class competing to determine the student who will represent Fremont at the GUSD Spelling Bee, usually in February. From there, the winner of the GUSD Bee along with winners from other school districts in California advance to the next level, and ultimately, to the nationals.
