About:
Each year, kindergarten through second-graders in the Mineola Union Free School District participate in the American Heart Association’s Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser.
This year, students at Meadow Drive School exceeded their fundraising goal of $8,000. With two weeks still left to collect and fundraise, the school has already raised its most money to date with $9,100. The Meadow Drive efforts are coordinated by physical education instructors Christine Gayson and Jim Durso.
