Jump Rope for Heart!

Dear Parents,

We kicked off our Jump Rope For Heart program in P.E  and our school’s event is Feb 17, 18 and 19 during P.E. class!  Pledge envelopes came home last Friday and are due on or before Feb. 19.

This is a fun and exciting event for our entire school as we work together to raise money for the American Heart Association and save lives! Last year our school raised $4,449.00 and our goal this year is to raise just as much or beat it!
Your students will be telling you about the Lifesaver puppies, so we wanted to fill you in! Each puppy teaches the kids a new way to protect their heart and avoid risk factors for heart disease and stroke. Your student can earn all 6!

If you raise $5 your student will get Super Pup at school now. If that donation is made online, they will also get a second puppy, Ninja Star. Any student who reaches $85 online will get Martia N. Mutley.

Need help raising donations? Trying using the online option!  If students sign-up on-line and send out 10 emails they can earn a surprise bag from the American Heart Association. We can see who signs-up and how many emails are sent, if you become part of the Georgetown team on-line.

You can sign up now by following these quick, easy steps to get started raising money and saving lives!
