This year, there were over 530 entries for our region. We entered 40 elementary students. Here are our results...


32 students scored perfect scores and the other 8 were very close....just a couple points away from perfect score!


Out of the five hundred thirty something kids, only 30 were chosen for the title of "Top of Team" and one of them is FWAFA 4th grader, Khara Lay!


Congratulations to all!
