• Healthy Lifestyles

    Research has shown that healthy students are more prepared to learn and realize greater success in the classroom. PTA is committed to creating a healthy environment for children by establishing a network of Healthy Lifestyles Chairs across the state, and then connecting those PTA leaders with community and state resources to support their efforts. Together, we can create FitKids and FitFamilies that are happy, healthy and ready to learn!
