It's time for a "What's Happening Wednesday" update! Even though it's another snow day, we're still raising money for the American Heart Association. If you haven't already, sign up for our Kids Heart Challenge in honor of our own Cougar, Kiera. Kiera will be sharing a little bit about Marfan Syndrome on our morning announcements this week. Marfan Syndrom can affect the heart in many ways. Check Dr. Budny's weekly email for details on how to support the challenge, but hurry! The fundraiser ends this Friday. We're also working out snow day learning challenges with KINDNESS! Put on those workout clothes, Cougars, and send a picture to Mrs. Wilhite!
