JUMP FOR HEART LOGO

We will be kicking off Jump Rope For Heart on January 30th and our celebration will be during PE classes February 12th-16th.  Jump Rope For Heart is a great way to educate students on the importance of heart health, and giving back to help others with special hearts.  You can join the team by following the steps below, thank you in advance for your support:

1. Go to http://www2.heart.org/goto/stenwoodes and click sign up or follow instructions below
 
2. Go to heart.org/jump and search for Stenwood Elementary

3. Select our school and join team.

4. Follow the remaining steps

Be sure to check out some of the new items in your HeadQuarters - we don't want you to miss out on sending Ecards and Emails and check out your My Virtual World where you can unlock cool games and earn points. These are new and fun ways to challenge yourself and others to be heart healthy and ask friends and family for a donation to save lives.

This year, all of your monsters will come to life! Make sure to take a few seconds to download the FREE Mobile app for iPhone or Android by searching for Jump/Hoops and see your monsters come to life, take selfies with your monsters and fundraise on the go.

Thank you so much for supporting our school and the American Heart Association. You are making a big difference in the fight against heart disease and stroke.
