Nutrition Education Curriculum
"Thank you so much for supporting our wellness fair. The students love the "Little D nutrition program."  My fitness club is coordinating a play of their story to promote healthy choices for a school show. We are very excited. The music and art department have volunteered to help. It will be a fine arts project. Thank you again for the resources and support for igniting an awesome nutrition program at our school."
