Dear Parents/Guardians,
Pierrepont School is excited to kick off our Kids Heart Challenge (formerly Hoops for Heart)! This year the students at Pierrepont will have the opportunity to help “Knock-Out” heart disease and stroke.
With at least a $10 online donation students will be able to participate in a “Knock-Out” tournament and receive a special prize. There will be a male & female champion for each grade level. Proceeds go directly to the American Heart Association. You may also collect donations & receive prizes, even if you do not want to participate in the tournament. The tournament schedule is as follows:
February 26th: 4th grade
February 27th: 5th grade
February 28th: 6th grade
*each event takes place from 3-3:30 in the Pierrepont Gym
