Our school-based programs teach students how to prepare healthy snacks, try new foods, and apply their newly learned nutrition knowledge to everyday eating habits.  We also offer the following ongoing nutrition education and support services to school staff and parents.

• Flying Pig Kids Marathon- An incremental family marathon that encourages families to be active together and to make healthier food choices.

• Teacher Wellness and Nutrition Workshops- Empowers educators to incorporate nutrition and physical activity components into their daily lesson plans.  
  
• Parent Wellness and Nutrition - An innovative cooking program to encourage parents to provide healthy foods for their family. 
  
• Resource Materials - Need a nutrition-related visual for a classroom presentation, health fair or the cafeteria?  Our displays and visuals help educate students about portion sizes, label reading, pyramid choices and more.
  
• Our professional staff serve as a resource to help implement and develop school wellness policies.  For more information about how the Nutrition Council can be part of the planning process contact Lauren Niemes at mailto:lauren@nutritioncouncil.org.
