WHAT IS THE HEALTHY ZONE SCHOOL
RECOGNITION PROGRAM®?
The Healthy Zone School Recognition Program® is designed to recognize schools that have excellent health programs and to support schools looking to improve health programming (Healthy Zone Schools). Schools are invited to participate in the program after going through a competitive selection process. Schools participate in the program for three years, during which eligible Healthy Zone Schools are given the chance to apply to become Exemplary Healthy Zone Schools. It is a goal of the program to support all schools in achieving their health goals and to help each Healthy Zone School become an
Exemplary Healthy Zone. During their time in the program, schools receive support and resources from the United Way of Metropolitan Dallas and The Cooper Institute® as well as share best practices.
ABOUT the Project : Saturday, March 24th
As a first year In Training Healthy Zone School - Coy Miller Elementary, will be
utilizing resources to transform our playground to a creative, interactive and
educational space that provides enjoyment for our students during recess.
The elementary school playground is a mainstay on every campus - it’s a memorable
and popular part of every student’s elementary school experience. To have the ability
to make substantial enhancements to the playground that give an amplified experience
for the individual student, the payback is and will be substantial for years to come.
Students love to get outside for recess. With this stencil addition, students will thrive
and enjoy that time even more when their playground becomes an interactive
movement zone. Game boards, jump and locomotor patterns, four-square, hopscotch,
and even “My Plate” nutrition interactive activities. This project will positively shape
children’s physical activity behavior during recess and activity time and provide a
significant increase in children’s engagement in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity(MVPA) during recess. The opportunities will be endless and substantial for a school environment where learning is student centered and with a special focus exercise and nutrition. The addition of this playground makeover for our campus and students will be a dynamic improvement and have long-lasting effects on our school community.
Paint Day is a great way to build community, school spirit and have a lot of fun! Best of all, everyone knows the end result is something special for the kids!
