On March 3, 2010, our city was honored with a visit from our First Lady, Michelle Obama. Mrs. Obama came to encourage our students and citizens to improve our health habits. To help with her endeavors, the kindergarten class at John Hopkins Elementary School has agreed to strive toward a healthier lifestyle through exercise, getting adequate rest, and eating nutritiously.
All kindergarten classes have decided to eat salads on every Friday. During the day, we have decided to get fifteen minutes of structured exercise during Physical Education. The teachers plan to communicate with the parents on the importance of getting adequate rest at night.
Our overall goal is to have healthier, happier, and more academically rounded students and adults.
