Welcome to the Homeschool Spelling League.
What is the homeschool spelling league?

HSSL was founded by ScholarSkills, an academic institution dedicated to helping parents build foundations for excellence in spelling, reading, and writing. ScholarSkills is an official sponsor of the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
