ROANE COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT) – An East Tennessee fifth grade student has won the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s first-ever statewide Missing Children Poster contest.

TBI officials named Destiny Carter of Pineview Elementary School in Rockwood the winner on Friday. Carter’s poster design featured a pair of hand prints over a field of blue, bordered by hearts with the phrase “Bring Our Missing Children Home.”

Carter’s work now goes up against fifth grade winners from across the nation in an annual poster contest sponsored by the U.S. Department of Justice through its Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention’s Child Protection Division.

If Carter’s poster wins, it will go on display at the National Missing Children’s Day ceremony and she will receive a trip to Washington D.C. to participate in the event.

It is actually Pine View corrections guy (: The one fact that is wrong is that she's a Cumberland County student.
