Jump Rope For Heart

       jumping rope

If everyone brings in just $5, our school could really raise a substantial amount of $$$$$.

 

The week of before St. Patrick's Day (March 10-14) Maples School will have a big party in the gym.  Everyone should come dressed in green and ready to jump rope to fight America's #1 killer: heart disease.  OUR GOAL IS $1500 THIS YEAR.
