Tomorrow: Thousand Islands Central School Wellness Fair
/
Every student in the high school is expected to attend the event, which is funded by the Carol M. White Physical Education Program Grant. That grant is designed to initiate, expand, and enhance physical education programs, including after-school programs for students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. The event will also feature tours of the new wellness center at the high school.
Grant recipients must implement programs that instruct students in healthy eating habits, good nutrition, and physical fitness activities. This includes fitness education and assessment to help students understand, improve, or maintain their physical well-being. Students will receive instruction in a variety of health, motor skills, and physical activities designed to enhance the physical, mental, and social or emotional development of every student, and to promote physical fitness that supports a lifelong healthy lifestyle.
Better Farm will have a booth at this event with trail guides and maps of hiking opportunities within the Indian River Lakes Conservancy, information about our sustainability internship program and betterArts residencies, a sign-up sheet for the upcoming Earth Day cleanup in Redwood, Better Farm membership opportunities and merchandise, and tons of information about ways individuals can start living healthier, more sustainable lifestyles. Hope to see you there!
Thousand Islands Central School is located at 8481 County Route 9 in Clayton, N.Y., 13624.
