Kavya Jakasania, 13, a seventh-grade student at Middle School 4 in Jersey City, outlasted all but 21 of the original 230-plus contestants.
, 13, a seventh-grade student at Middle School 4, breezed through the preliminaries on Tuesday and correctly defined “ethereal” in the vocabulary section of the quarterfinals on Wednesday to reach the semifinals. There, she stumbled on “revellent” , a word she knew but second-guessed herself, she said, and just missed by saying “revellant.”
Kavya reached the Scripps bee by winning the 2023 Hudson County Spelling Bee, sponsored by the county Office of Cultural & Heritage Affairs and Tourism Development, in February. The county also sponsored her trip to National Harbor, Maryland, for Bee Week and the televised national bee. “I really grew from Bee Week, and I learned a lot of new things,” Kavya said, adding she plans to work “twice as hard” over the next year in the hope that she’ll make it all the way to the finals in 2024.
