Kids Heart Challenge
How appropriate that we celebrate Valentines Week with the kick off of the Kids Heart Challenge. On Tuesday afternoon at 2:00p.m, Chalmers students will hold a kick off rally to begin our school wide challenge.
Kids Heart Challenge (formerly Jump Rope for Heart) is an American Heart Association program that help teachers prepare students to be physically and emotionally successful. We will learn and practice cardio pumping activities like jumping rope and raise life-saving research dollars for the American Heart Association, while teaching students about social and emotion learning and the importance of good health.
- Students are encouraged to develop heart-healthy habits through the help of seven interactive Heart Hero characters.
- When students register for Kids Heart Challenge, elementary school students take a healthy pledge to (1) be more physically active, (2) be kind or (3) to help others.
- The Kids Heart Challenge provides enhanced give-backs and incentive opportunities to reward participating schools and new, expanded curriculum resources supporting whole-child centered learning
Look for information coming home Tuesday Night!
Note From The Prinicpal
Everyday is so important and I want to thank you for our continual high attendance numbers. Chalmers consistently has the #1 attendance average for schools in Gainesville. That is because of your dedication as parents to make sure your kids are here every day. If you can make it out Monday night for the performance, I highly encourage it. It should be a great night for our Chalmers family.
