Families of Grandview,
As we wrap up January and head into February, we will be recognizing American Heart Month. This month we will be challenging our students to sign up to participate in the American Heart Association’s “Kid’s Heart Challenge”. We are encouraging all of our students to sign up! Through the program, students will be able to engage in activities that promote heart health and raise funds for the American Heart Association. In addition, if 50% of our students enroll in the program, we will earn $500 for recess equipment! We can do this Grandview!
