Goals For Nutrition Education, Physical Activity, Wellness, and School Based Activities

  • Students are continually reminded that they are special creations of a great and loving God.  He cares for them, as do their teachers and staff.  This provides a strong base for the emotional and spiritual wellness of students.

  • Students are educated in good nutrition practices as part of each classroom’s science and health curriculum.

  • Each student participates in physical education classes 30-45 minutes two to three times weekly.

  • All students take an outdoor break at least daily, younger children sometimes three times a day, weather permitting.  Students use the gym during inclement weather.

  • Students participate in organized activities such as Jump Rope for Heart, Project Fit America, and President’s Council on Physical Fitness.  Reminders are also given to students regarding healthy physical activity such as riding bikes, walking, etc.

  • Students are taught how to make healthy, nutritious food choices.
