The Port Allegany Elementary School
raised $4,177 for the American Heart Association through the Jump Rope
for Heart campaign.
Students in grades three through six spent their
gym classes jumping rope during the week of February 10.

the cause. She was jumping in honor of her niece who was born with a
hole in her heart Lily was also a "Jump Rope All Star" winning a jump rope contest with one winner from each
homeroom. She is pictured with elementary school nurse Jessica Rohrer
