Crosby Elementary is co-sponsoring, along with the American Heart Association, a Jump Rope For Heart fund raiser on Friday, March 19^th from 2:30 to 4:30. Students that participate in this afterschool activity will be released from school at 2:00 and can stay and will be dismissed to the gym with Mrs. Beatty. (This is an early dismissal day) Students will be provided with a healthy snack and drink.

A minimum of $5.00 donation will allow your child to participate. Each student will need to complete the permission slip below and return the minimum of $5.00 sponsorship money by Friday, March 12^th .Students will receive a mini-sport bottle for their participation (Delivered 4-6 weeks after event). The $5.00 or more sponsorship can be in the form of cash or check made payable to Crosby Elementary.

Please help your child get involved! Your child will need help with raising money to help others who have cardiovascular disease, including kids! You can assist by helping your child ask friends and family to give in support of your child’s efforts for the American Heart Association. Remember every little bit helps.

We are really excited about our first year sponsorship of the Jump Rope For Heart event and the experience it will offer our students. We hope you will support your child’s participation in this lifesaving, educational event.
