Warriors,
Our American Heart Association Kids Heart Challenge Event concluded February 18th. Thanks to all that participated in the event! This money goes to a great cause and gets our students learning more about Heart Disease. The entire Calamus-Wheatland CSD raised a grand total of $4,059.11 for the AHA. That is the most we have ever raised!! Big shout out to Warrior Nation for supporting this foundation!
