We have been working with FUTP 60 since May 2016. We received a grant to meet our wellness goals for this school year. Our students became involved after our Kick off on August 30, 2016. Students have been meeting Ambassador status ever since. We added smoothies to our snack cart and they are served weekly. We also have students participating in the Marathon Kids program where they are running weekly to meet goals.

How did you accomplish your goals?

We met goals by adding smoothies, cheese sticks, grab n go yogurts to the snack cart for healthier options. We also have students running weekly to meet marathon status.
