Staff members in Fayette County Public Schools have prepared an action plan and recommendations for the district’s 2009 Nutrition and Physical Activity Report.

Among the highlights are a districtwide health advisory council and expansion of the breakfast and lunch programs. Another goal is to ensure each student gets 30 minutes of physical activity daily.

FCPS hosted a public forum in December to gather input and get feedback on the district’s fall 2008 Wellness Report Card. The two-page report reviewed nutrition and physical activity education districtwide.
