Goal:
Get kids moving for better health. We want to encourage participation, without an
emphasis on competition.
Premise:
With the help of the elementary school P.E. teachers, and volunteer mentors from
the community assigned to each school, each child will be encouraged to keep track of time
spent running, walking, biking, swimming, or playing sports . Activity logs will be completed and
turned in each month. The school with the highest percentage of activity will receive an award
and a banner will be displayed at the school for one month.
December Calendar of Events
Recognition:
Congratulations to Little Valley Elementary School for winning “This Month’s Most Active School”.
Each student from the winning school who has completed their activity log will be awarded a certificate good for free particapation in one of the upcoming activities.
Additional Activities:
Each City will schedule Move it! events that the students can participate
in on their own or with their families.
