Healthier Middle Schools:
Everyone Can Help
is a series of communication
tools designed to help you
engage teachers, principals,
parents, food service managers
and students in school wellness
efforts. To support healthy food
choices and physical activity at
your school, a school-wide
coordinated approach works best.
USDA's Food and Nutrition
Service is providing these
resources under its Team
Nutrition initiative to help you
bring everyone together to
promote student wellness and
prevent childhood obesity.
Healthier Middle Schools:
Everyone Can Help
includes an audience-tested
video and a print handout for
teachers, principals, parents,
food service managers and
students. Focus groups across
the country informed the
development of these tools - so
they reflect what the various
audiences found to be
motivational and realistic.
View suggestions,
based on their feedback, on
how to use these tools.
