Hoops for Heart happened on February 26, and our 6th grade students raised $7,600.00 for the American Heart Association.
Owen Boggs (4th grade) was the top fundraiser for Jump Rope for Heart. He raised $900.00! Eric Maest was our top individual fundraiser for the 3rd year in a row! This year, Eric raised $3,280.00 for Hoops for Heart. For last year's Jump Rope event, Eric raised $2,205.00, and when he was in 4th grade, he raised $1,400.00. Eric holds the school record for individual fundraising and according to Mr. Boggs's Blog, this has earned him the nickname "Big Money."
Our grand total raised between the two events is $23,424.00, which is a new school record! Thanks to our Physical Education department for coordinating these great events, and thank you to all who fundraised, participated, and attended.
