Vision: Healthy Choices—Every Child, Every Day
Core Beliefs:
- We believe that all children want to pursue their goals and dreams which can only be achieved by making healthy choices.
- We believe there is a relationship between healthy eating and wellness choices and the capacity of children to learn and succeed.
- We believe that students, teachers, administrators, counselors, school nutrition staff, school nurses, and community are partners in the achievement of our vision.
