Kids Heart Challenge - JA families, we did it! Thanks to all the families who supported our Kids Heart Challenge! Together we made healthy choices, learned lifesaving skills, and supported kids with special hearts through donations to charity. Click here to see our school’s final results! This year, our school’s service project with the American Heart Association empowered students to:
Learn about heart health and practice kindness
Take part in Finn’s Mission including learning Hands-Only CPR
Raised awareness throughout our community and helped fund the mission of the American Heart Association
Are able to apply for wellness grants and earn equipment for PE or recess.
Remaining gifts earned by our students will be ordered and will take about 4-6 weeks to arrive at school
