Lost Mountain Middle is proud to support the American Heart Association! By participating in the American Heart Challenge, you have the opportunity to raise awareness and funds for congenital heart defects, CPR training, mental well-being and more as we work to end heart disease and stroke. Along the way you’ll meet some of the kids you’re helping while learning about mind and body health. Plus, our school can earn money for P.E. equipment and your student can earn fun thank you gifts! Our Hoops for Heart Gotcha (Knockout) Tournament will be on February 17 @ 8:20 am. All students are invited to join us in the gym that morning. To participate in the tournament, the charge will be $5 and to $1 to be a spectator. The Gotcha Tournament winner will get prize for winning. Everyone participating will receive a gift for donating. All students are invited to register and join in the fundraising campaign online and earn individual thank-you gifts!
