The Third Annual Bulldog Run (5K, Fun Run, Silent Auction, and Health Fair) will be on April 11 and will benefit the American Heart Association and the Howe Memorial Scholarship. The Howe ISD Student Health and Advisory Committee (SHAC) has set the goal of raising $1,000 for each. Donations for the Silent Auctions may be made by contacting Ritchie Bowling at (903) 532-3228. The week of Feb. 16th-20th there will have a Bulldog Run T-Shirt Design contest and all students are encouraged to participate. The winning design will be used on the t-shirt for the run and the winner will be recognized at an upcoming school board meeting and receive a prize.
The Howe ISD Student Health and Advisory Committee (SHAC) is also sponsoring the “Go Red for Women” campaign for Howe ISD employees for the month of February. Employees are getting heart healthy information weekly from the American Heart Association and on Feb. 27th the employees will have a “Go Red” day for awareness. Employees may purchase a shirt from the American Heart Association and these funds will be added to the Howe Elementary Jump Rope for Heart later this year.
