Congratulations Buist Knights for an incredibly successful Kids Heart Challenge Fundraiser. The school exceeded the $10,000 initial fundraiser goal. The classes with the highest registration percentages were Ms. Bonneau, Mrs. Garrido-Rojo, Ms. Mortensen, Ms. Clawson, Mrs. Biggs, and Ms. Williams. The class with the highest dollar total was Ms. Clawson's class. First-grade student, Liam Boucher was our top student earner!

We are proud of all our students who donated and registered for this event! Thank you to Mrs. Tisdale and Ms. Jemison for leading the way. Thanks to all our heart heroes!
