New Report: Wisconsin Success Stories-
Physical Activity and Nutrition
Schools continue to be the place where children spend a majority of their waking hours. Although the primary responsibility of schools is education, more studies on both cognition and health point to the benefits of physical activity, educating young people on forming healthy habits, and nutritious meals as ways to positively impact academics and attendance.
Oftentimes, schools know that putting health-promoting practices in place for students, families, and staff will lead to a myriad of better outcomes, but they do not know where to begin.
This issue highlights schools and districts that have taken the first step, and in some cases have gone beyond those first steps and have had longer lasting impacts on student health and related policies across the district.
