December Theme: Reach Out to School Leaders
Encourage school leaders such as your superintendent and his/her team of administrators as well as members of the school board to examine physical education/policy activity policies within your school district. Educate them about the Let's Move in School movement. Here are some easy ways to educate the school leaders about a comprehensive school physical activity program:
- Share with your school leaders the new Let's Move in School – Superintendents and School Boards Toolkit
- Conduct a presentation about a comprehensive school physical activity program for your school board.
Use the WellSAT to assess your local school wellness policy.
- Educate parents about physical education/physical activity policies.
- Read what ASCD author & brain-based learning proponent Eric Jensen has to say on the importance of exercise in schools.
- Check out these physical activity break ideas.
- Post It! with this month's Let's Move in School Bulletin Board Message.
- Register for upcoming Let's Move in School Webinars.
