The fifth grade participated in the annual Jump Rope for Heart program as part of their physical education classes. We raised a total of $429 dollars to donate to the American Heart Association. We had students from every fifth grade class donate money as well as all fifth graders jumped in teams of six for sixty minutes.
Did you know that by participating in Jump Rope For Heart you're helping to save lives?
Jump Rope For Heart is a national educational fund-raising program that is sponsored by the American Heart Association and the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance (AAHPERD).
Jump Rope For Heart engages elementary students in jumping rope while raising funds to support lifesaving heart and stroke research. Students ask friends and family for donations and receive thank-you gifts based on the dollars they raise. This educational program teaches physical fitness and promotes the value of community service to students and their families. It shows students that they can contribute to their community's welfare.
