Northern Valley 1st-4th graders are participating in the Kids Heart Challenge. Our students will be out in our communities collecting donations or they may create an online page, for you to donate to, that links to our school. Your contribution will be greatly appreciated to help us reach our goal. If you are not contacted by a student or do not have a student link, but would still like to donate to the cause you can click on my link below that will go towards our school contribution to the American Heart Association. Last year we earned $4,569. We know that with your help we can beat that goal! Let me know if you would like to donate to our life saving cause. I will get you connected with a student so that they can earn great prizes while raising money for AHA! The students will be raising money all February and at the end of the month the students will jump rope to celebrate the end of the school fundraiser. Thank you for your continued support! ~Mrs. Gebhard
