Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser is this week at Snoqualmie Elementary


February 12, 2013 · 3:24 PM

February is National Heart Month, and Snoqualmie Elementary is celebrating by holding a Jump Rope For Heart event, this week through February 15.

Each student or staff member can submit names of people in their lives that have heart disease or have died from heart disease, stroke or heart disease related illness.  Each name will be put on a giant heart that will be hung on the wall in the gym during the jump rope event.

A letter about how students can help the American Heart Association has gone home with the students, who will be raising funds during the event.

You can call the school at 831-8050. Learn about SES at http://ses.svsd410.org/
