Healthy Schools website

The CDC has launched a new Healthy Schools website which provides a host of information and tools for teachers, parents, and students on school nutrition, physical activity, obesity prevention, management of chronic diseases in schools, and more. AFHK actively partnered with the CDC to provide resources for the site specifically related to Health & Academics, Parent Engagement and Local School Wellness Policy.
