CATCH Healthy Eating!
Helping our children make positive health choices takes the entire school community–teachers, principals, cafeteria staff and parents working together in a coordinated way. I strongly encourage and welcome your support for this program. As a parent, your role in influencing your child to make healthy choices is extremely important. A key focus of the CATCH Program is to create an environment that makes the healthy choice the easy choice for our students. Throughout the year, we will promote positive health choices through wellness activities, classroom and physical education curricula, signs around our campus and family nights. We hope you will encourage healthy choices at home, too. You will receive CATCH Program news periodically to keep you up to date on what’s happening at school and suggestions you can use at home to build more nutritious foods and more physical activity into your child’s life. A major emphasis of CATCH is helping children learn to make healthy food choices. Our school will encourage students to eat only healthy and nutritious snacks during the school day. We will be using the terms “GO,” “SLOW” and “WHOA” to help kids know foods they should eat more–or less–of.
