The 2020 Scripps National Spelling Bee has been cancelled. Contested since 1925, the Bee is sponsored by the Scripps Corporation of Cincinnati, Ohio and the finals are held somewhere in the Washington, DC area in late May or early June. According to its sponsors, the Bee's purpose is to "help students improve their spelling, increase their vocabularies, learn concepts and develop correct English usage that will help them all their lives".
About 11 million school children in the eighth grade or under generally take part in the competition. In 2019 eight competitors tied for first place.
