Schools are an important environment to support health.
Several challenges to physical activity and nutritious food still exist within many communities, both in and out of schools. It is important for parents and schools to work together to ensure that local, state, and national physical activity and nutrition standards eliminate these challenges in schools.
When parents and schools work together to make the healthy the easy choice, they make health cool for their children.
Join #SaludTues on September 1, 2015 to tweet about how parents and schools can create safe spaces for children to be physically active outside of regular school hours by using existing resources.
