Congratulations to the cast and crew of Frozen Jr. It was an amazing show!

Thank you to Ms. Kilgore, student volunteers, parent volunteers, and Buist staff who helped to make this show possible.

Thank you to Mrs. White and the Buist Foundation for your never-ending support.

Last but not least, thank you to Dr. Braunreuther for your vision, patience, and dedication. Great job!

Please remind students to check lost and found daily. We have many lost items for Quarter 2 that need to be found. Parents are welcome to check lost and found before and after school. These items will be donated on Friday, February 3.

The Buist Academy Royal Fun Run is the school’s largest fundraiser each year, money from which helps support additional art, STEM, and literacy programs; this year’s musical; monthly house celebrations; Knights of the Month awards; 8th-grade graduation; clubs and club days; quarterly Coffee & Conversations; stipends for faculty who work with after school activities; and IB education and professional development for teachers; among other things.

The Buist Academy Foundation is seeking sponsorship for the 2023 Royal Fun Run to be held on April 7th, 2023 at Tiedemann Park. Sponsors can be a business, an individual, a family, or even anonymous.

For a $250 donation, your name will be listed on the back of the t-shirts that will be worn by students and teachers that day (and many spirit days to follow). We welcome larger donations as well.

We need approximately 15 donors at the $250 level to fund the t-shirts for the run. Every donation helps. Donations are due by March 1^st

Please use the google form link to indicate your willingness to sponsor the Fun Run and for more information about how to donate: https://forms.gle/9qX6VaFmJ34CDGUD8. (Sponsorship donations do not contribute toward your student's totals within the school fundraising competition.)

Thank you for considering a donation to support the 2023 Buist Academy Royal Fun Run.
