HAPPY MONTH OF APRIL!!!! SPRING IS DEFINITELY IN THE AIR...This month I would like to showcase myplate.gov This website has tons of great information on how to incorporate more healthy food into our diet. Fruits and vegetables should make up half of our plate and there are so many YUMMY ways to be sure we are getting plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables every day. The myplate website has a short survey that I hope you will take the time to check out. Many tips and ideas for a healthy diet are at the end. HERE'S TO A HEALTHY SPRING!!!!!!
April 24-30, 2021 is World Immunization Week. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), "Immunization saves millions of lives every year and is widely recognized as one of the world's most successful health interventions". ALSO, DON'T FORGET YOUR INCOMING 7TH GRADER WILL NEED A Tdap BEFORE STARTING SCHOOL IN THE FALL.
Don't forget we are still navigating through the Covid-19 pandemic. Remember the 4 W's each day: Wear a mask, Wash your hands, Watch your distance, Wipe down surfaces.
EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON WHICH YOU CAN USE TO CHANGE THE WORLD. Nelson Mandela
