\r\n

The American Heart Association visited our school today to kick off the Kids Heart Challenge (formerly Jump Rope for Heart)! Students joined teams to work together to defeat heart disease while learning how easy and FUN it can be to take care of our hearts!\r\n

\r\n

Our students will be learning all about heart disease, exercise, and healthy eating over the next few weeks, and on November 26th we will have our Kids Heart Challenge event!  We hope you will join us as we work to support the American Heart Association’s mission of saving lives. Sign up through the App – search Kids Heart Challenge (App Store for iPhone or Google Play for Android) or online at www.heart.org/khc  \r\n

\r\n

Last year we raised over $4600; this year we have set a goal of $5000 to help fight heart disease!  To help us reach our goal, we are taking a SLIME CHALLENGE!!! Any student who raises $150 (or more!) gets to slime Coach Mulvany!\r\n
