Kids Heart Challenge

 

 

Dear Pleasant Ridge Parents,

 

Kids Heart Challenge (formerly Jump Rope for Heart) is a fun and effective way to encourage lifelong health through education and being physically active.

 

The kick-off will be on Friday, February 1st.  The event will take place on Friday, March 8th during the school day:

 

5th Grade:  8-9am

3rd Grade:  12:55-1:55pm

4th Grade:  10-11am

 

Kids Heart Challenge (KHC) provides the opportunity for students to raise donations for the American Heart Association (AHA) to help in the fight against heart disease and stroke.  Envelopes will be distributed on February 1st.  You can also help your child(ren) sign up online by visiting:

If you have any questions about Kids Heart Challenge, please contact us at (847) 657-2715 or by email.   We look forward to teaching your child(ren) heart healthy habits and raising their heart rates not just during the KHC event, but each day during physical education class. 

 

 

All the best,
