KIDS HEART CHALLENGE





Throughout the months of January and February, Lower School students did an amazing job collecting donations for the American Heart Association to help those with heart defects and heart disease. During this time, we learned how to keep our hearts healthy with daily heart health lessons on nutrition and exercise. On Friday February 15, we had our Heart Challenge 'Fun Day' with awesome music, face painting, jump rope stations, basketball stations, heart-healthy snacks, and a jump rope competition. The event is designed to be a celebration of how many lives we saved with each $50 donation... nearly 550! The students worked hard to collect $26,819 in donations! I am so proud of their dedicated work toward this cause.
*A big THANK YOU to all of the event volunteers... Lower School teachers, awesome parents, & Wichita State University PE students. The event would not be the same without your help!
