A health and wellness initiative designed to meet Federal Wellness Plan requirements.
Childhood obesity has tripled in the past 30 years. To improve the health of America's schoolchildren, Congress passed the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act, which requires all school districts with federally funded school lunch programs to implement wellness policies addressing nutrition and physical activity.

Active & Healthy Schools™:  Exceeding requirements, easy to implement.
Developed by noted author and educator Dr. Robert Pangrazi, the Active & Healthy Schools™ Program is designed to be a comprehensive and versatile solution to meeting the federal requirements and improving student health. AHS focuses on three key wellness issues:

• Promoting activity throughout the school day – and beyond
• Teaching good nutrition and eating habits
• Raising sun-safety awareness

Partnering with Dr. Pangrazi, Gopher Sport has developed a full range of helpful resources that make it easy to introduce Active & Healthy™ practices into your school environment.
Make your school an Active & Healthy™ School!
