- Each ticket is valid for one free admission only.
- Earlier in the year, each teacher should have sent home a reading log with a code for you to use to submit the minutes read.
Kids Heart Challenge
We have begun Kids Heart Challenge (formerly known as Jump Rope for Heart)!
Your Child is learning heart healthy exercises and lessons on how to achieve a heart healthy lifestyle. They also have the chance to feel great about helping kids with special hearts and learn about doing good deeds!
Please Register your Child and take one of the Heart Health Challenges with your Family - Click here Join the Kids Heart Challenge at Blair Oaks Elementary then click on Sign Up. This will start a habit in your family for a healthier lifestyle.
If you help your child raise donations, they receive thank you gifts.
Thank you for taking the Family Heart Health Challenge and helping others! Every single dollar you raise will help kids and families build healthier lives. I'm so proud of our school community for making such a big difference!
Thank you for being a Blair Oaks Elementary Heart Hero!
