Spangler students put heart into fundraiser

Students from Spangler Elementary School put their heart into a good cause while jump roping and hula hooping March 31. That day, every student from transitional kindergarten through sixth grade rotated through heart-healthy activity stations for the school's Jump Rope for Heart event, coordinated by the school's student council alongside Assistant Principal Katelin McClure.

​In the two weeks leading up to the event, held to teach students the benefits of a healthy diet and exercise, Spangler students raised a total of $4,740 in donations for the American Heart Association.
