What did we do next? Strategic Wellness Planning • We continued to measure, collect and compare data • We communicated • We surveyed • We revised • Schools implemented • We worked together

We Asked Tough Questions… • How do we ensure our families are educated to make healthier choices in what they consume? • Are we maximizing our resources to better promote physical fitness at our schools? • Do we really understand the relationship between health and learning? • If modeling is a powerful teaching strategy, how does our school culture reflect maintaining a healthy lifestyle?
