Recently, students have been introduced to Jump Rope for Heart. Warren L. Miller Elementary is participating in Jump Rope for Heart for the 8th consecutive year in February. Participating in this program has been rewarding for several reasons:
- Students learn how to Jump Rope with short ropes, long ropes, Chinese ropes, and participate in other jumping activities.
- Students learn the importance of heart health and why jumping rope is a great exercise.
- Students have an opportunity to learn about how the American Heart Association helps those in need by using the money raised to promote heart awareness, research, and education.
All student donations can be returned on or before February 18, 2015. Ask your child to share a jump rope accomplishment they have achieved! You may contact me anytime at ksmith@southerntioga.org with any questions about our Jump Rope for Heart Program.
