Collaborative Achievements in Health and Education:
Gardening and Health Clubs Collaboration: 20170404_124709.jpg In significant initiative, the Gardening Club and the Health Club collaborated to promote healthy eating choices among students. This collaboration was highlighted when the Gardening Club secured 2nd place in a national cooking competition, celebrated for their innovative 'Farm to Plate' dish that exemplified the farm-to-table philosophy.
Nutrition through Music: https://youtu.be/WwMm5cbSKeM Under the leadership of our history and culture teachers, the Lyricist Society Club created a nutrition-focused song that educated and entertained, contributing to a broader engagement with cultural awareness through music. Their efforts culminated in winning a Grammy Award for their culturally insightful songs, showcasing the club’s ability to merge health education with cultural expressions in a way that resonates deeply with youth.
Health and Mental Health Fairs: https://youtu.be/jvWQO3_TASE Our team has successfully facilitated several annual health and mental health fairs, each drawing over 1,000 attendees, including students, staff, and community members. These fairs have served as vital platforms for disseminating important health information, providing mental health resources, and engaging the community in active discussions about wellness. The fairs featured interactive booths, expert-led workshops, and live demonstrations, all designed to foster a healthier community.
