On February 26th and March 19th our L.I.S. students held their Hoops for Heart and Jump Rope for Heart events.  Our 6th graders raised $7600 and our 4th and 5th graders raised $15,824 for the American Heart Association.  A great time was had by all of our students, parents, and staff that came back at night to help out.  Our grand total which is a school record is $23,424!!!  Kudos to our L.I.S. students.

From L to R:  Our top fundraisers for both events:  4th grader Owen Boggs raised $900 for Jump Rope for Heart and 6th grader Eric Maest raised $3280 for Hoops for Heart (A new school record!!).  In Eric's 3 years at L.I.S. he has now raised a total of $6,885 (another school record) earning him the nickname "BIG MONEY".
