Jump Rope for Heart - Thursday, November 1st
Dear Parents,
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.
- 3rd/4th & 5th/6th grades will jump from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm.
Thanks for your help,
Gina L. McNeese
Horace Mann Physical Education Instructor

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the principal, Laura King (lmking@nwmissouri.edu).
Last Chance to Win a New Scooter!
Thank you also to the families who helped with the stadium cleanup after the game. I cannot express how important this is as a fundraiser for us and it is so easy to do. If you have not joined us for stadium cleanup yet, you have one more opportunity.
- Saturday, November 3rd game starts at 1:30 pm
PAC (Parent Advisory Council) is offering a great incentive opportunity to help support how important this fundraiser is to our children.
- Earn a free medium Kool Kat coupon (thank you, Kool Kats, for the donation!)every time you help with trash pick up at home NW football games!
- Your student’s name will be entered into a drawing, every time they help, for a Razor Scooter to be drawn right after the last home NW football game.
