JUMP ROPE FOR HEART IS UNDERWAY
Allenwood School’s Jump Rope for Heart campaign is underway! With this initiative, our students and families learn how to take care of their hearts and have an opportunity to give back to the community by collecting donations to help save lives of those living with and suffering from heart disease. In addition, our school earns money for PE equipment, so we can keep our kids moving!
In addition to American Heart Association’s “thank you” gifts, for every $100 raised online, your child will be entered into a raffle for the following:
• Sports Prize Pack
• Mrs. Salt for the Day
• Mr. Maritt for the Day
• Wawa lunch with a friend
• Plush Friends
Go to www.heart.org/jump to get started today. Allenwood School’s big jump day is March 5th!

Current TerraCycle Numbers
Contest runs until 5/1 and we can accept ANY brand cereal bag, PLUS cereal bag liners!
Each recycled item earns money for our school!
