Kids Heart Challenge

Georgetown families, we can not thank you enough for all the donations to the American Heart Association!! We raised just over $12,300.00 WOW! We wanted to let you know that the larger thank you gifts (like the yo yo, t-shirt, and play ground ball etc.) will come in after Spring Break. Here are a few pictures of our event in PE.

REMINDER KHC ENDS FEBRUARY 15!

Once again we are amazed at how much our GT family has raised for the American Heart Association.  We have 173 kids registered and 132 of those have raised over $9,600.00 already.  There is still time to register and give if you would like to help the American Heart Association.   The deadline is February 15 to register!

Kids Heart Challenge will be starting February 1 and ending February 15.  To participate in raising money for American Heart Association you will need to sign-up online and collect money online too!  All students will be coming home with information on Friday that will help you get registered online.  Thanks for considering helping the American Heart Association with this great cause!

P.E. C.A.R.E.S

 

 

 

The annual P.E. C.A.R.E.S food drive will be starting on November 4. We are asking for your help by bringing in non-perishable food items for Love Inc. in Hudsonville.

Food items to consider are canned vegetables and fruits, pasta, rice, baked beans, black beans, kidney beans, peanut butter, tuna fish, etc. (please no ramen noodles, and please do not break apart packaged food)

The food drive will continue until Nov. 18.  We will be keeping track of how many items each class brings in.  The class with the most items brought in by NOON on Nov. 18 will win a P.E. C.A.R.E.S t-shirt and a bowling trip to Hudsonville Lane. (If allowed this year)

This is a great opportunity for our students to care for their community, to teach our kids compassion and love for others.  Thanks for sharing in this service project with us at Georgetown.
