Activated School Challenge

We believe that schools have the opportunity to increase student achievement and health through healthy eating, physical activity, nutrition education, physical education and emotional wellbeing. School health and wellness must be considered at all levels, from the school bus, the classroom, the lunchroom, the playground and after school.

With child obesity rates at crisis levels, students needing emotional support more than ever and funding concerns, now is the time to create healthy environments to support the healthy development of our youth. Our schools set the bar in terms of health and wellness for our communities. We have some terrific resources, information, and ideas to help create a healthy, nutritious, supportive and active school day for all children. The Activated School Challenge is open to any school in Allen, Auglaize and Putnam Counties.
