A Canfield Village Middle School student was recognized for winning the 92nd annual 21 WFMJ Regional Spelling Bee.

Daniela Pappa-Lardo stopped at the Boardman Kawanis Club's meeting ahead of her journey to the Scripps National Spelling Bee next month.

The competition will take place on Memorial Day weekend in Washington, D.C.

Pappa-Lardo, a seventh grader, won the regional competition by correctly spelling the word "tonada" which means a tune or song.
