This year, Timothy is partnering up with Fuel Up to Play 60, an in-school nutrition and physical activity program launched by the National Dairy Council (NDC) and national Football League (NFL) with additional partnership suport from U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
The program encourages youth to consume nutrient-rich foods (dairy, fruits, vegetables and whole grains) and achieve at least 60 minutes of physical activity every day. Fuel up to Play 60 is designed to engage and empower youth to take action for their own health by implementing long term positive changes for themselves and our school.
Fuel Up to Play 60 also has an online component where our students earn points by recording their healthy habits. Our students and school can benefit from these points by earning various prizes.
Fuel up to Play 60 Kick-Off Event
Please join us on Thursday, December 8th for the “Are You as Fit as your Fifth Grader” event which will take place from 6:45 pm - 8:15 pm in the high school gym. This event is for all K-8 families and will take place in the high school gym from 6:45-8:15 pm. This will be a spectacular evening to help us kick off the New Fuel Up to Play 60 program. And, here’s some exciting news….former NFL player Mark Inkrott will be coming to our school! He will help us promote the school’s new focus on the importance of eating right and staying active for at least 60 minutes every day. All family members will be encouraged to participate in various fitness challenges and to enjoy some healthy snacks. Wear your favorite NFL team colors or t-shirts to show your support.
Tree of Life Chiropractic Center will be offering free chair massages that evening, available for all parents. And, free diagnostic foot scans will be offered which will give parents and students important insights of the foundation of the bottom of their feet. The information provided may actually help reduce sports injuries.
