Tomorrow is Jump Rope for Heart. Parents are welcome to join us cheer their child on during the event. Ms. Gina always creates a fun and interactive hour of jump rope fun for the children!

Kids Heart Challenge & Jump Rope for Heart
Hi Horace Mann Lab families,
Many of our families have already taken the Family Heart Health Challenge. If you haven’t, the American Heart Association and I hope will do so today. The challenges you have to choose from inspires your family to achieve better heart health and positive behavior habits. Please watch the short video on how your family can take the challenge and how your child can receive their wristband (no donation necessary). To watch the video click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxWtqoGk5EU .

Thank you for being a part of the Kids Heart Challenge!
The Jump Rope for Heart Collection Packets can be turned in to the secretary at school any time but the last day to turn them in is Thursday, November 1st.
This is the day of our jumping event in Lamkin Gym. All money that is collected goes to the American Heart Association. The American Heart Association gives valuable equipment coupons back to our school and this is a big part of our physical education budget. All children will participate in fun jumping stations on Thursday morning and each will draw from a prize table as a thank you from me for giving of themselves to help someone less fortunate.
- 3rd/4th & 5th/6th grades will jump from 9:50 am to 10:50 am.
- kindergarten & 1st/2nd grades will jump from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm.
Thanks for your help,

PAC (Parent Advisory Council) is offering a great incentive opportunity to help support how important this fundraiser is to our children.
