Access to Healthy Foods

Kindergarten students are encouraged to bring healthy class snacks and several students are bringing in awesome snacks!!

What challenges did you face and how did you overcome them?

It is so easy to buy a package of cookies or chips or sugar packed snacks so changing this is not only changing the way people eat, it is changing the way they think. Some are not in total agreement with our healthy initiative, but we feel with positive attitudes we can change the way they think and make our community healthier overall.
