Ortega Elementary School families,

We are excited to help create a community of lifesavers and am asking you to join us. Sign up under our school today. Check this off your list today and receive a wristband just for joining the team.
This year, we have an important goal: 100% of our families learning the lifesaving skill of Hands-Only CPR! It only takes a few minutes to learn, and it can make all the difference in an emergency.

Sign up here: https://www2.heart.org/site/TR?fr_id=12400&pg=company&company_id=548660 or download the free “AHA Schools” app for iPhone or Android.

Raise funds to help kids with special hearts.

Complete Finn’s Mission: Complete all 7 steps, learn Hands-Only CPR, and be entered to win two Super Bowl tickets!

Sign up online and earn your WRISTBAND! PLUS sign up before 2/18 and you will be recognized at our school assembly!

If 50% of our families sign up, our school will earn a $500 gift certificate for physical activity and recess equipment to support the health of our school community.

Let’s work together to create a community of lifesavers. Thank you for your support in helping us achieve this incredible goal!
