Hello Cornell Families, Our students have had so much fun with this year’s Kids Heart Challenge! We are extremely proud of our families for supporting this service-learning initiative! Thank you all for helping your student take the online heart healthy pledge, raise donations or both. If you have not had a chance to help—there is still time. Please be sure to ask your child about our service-learning project and what they can do to make a difference. DON’T MISS OUT! JOIN KIDS HEART CHALLENGE NOW! http://www2.heart.org/goto/cornellgradeschool

It’s time for the American Heart Association’s Kids Heart Challenge Program! By participating in Kids Heart Challenge, your student will join us on a road trip through the US to learn heart healthy habits and begin caring for their whole hearts. While heart disease remains the nation’s #1 killer, it can be preventable through lifestyle choices! We would love to help your student implement those heart healthy habits NOW! Simply register on the app or webpage today to enjoy an educational, fun online experience and help raise life- saving funds to fight heart disease!
