Students at Batavia Middle School beat out 87 schools in a shoe drive as part of the Girls on the Run program.
The girls collected 1,220 donated pairs of shoes.
As a result of the big win, Molly Barker, founder of Girls on the Run, will visit Batavia Middle School at a future date.
"We wanted to put a thank you out there to the community for all of their support," said teacher Sarah Gahagan. "We had over 90 Batavia families donate to this cause. Just goes to show how when a community pitches in great things can happen."
