DID YOU KNOW...
...that over the past three decades, the childhood obesity rate in America has more than doubled for children aged 2-5 years and 12-19 years? It has more than TRIPLED for children aged 6-11 years.
At present, approximately nine million children over 6 years of age are considered obese.
It should come as no surprise to hear that 54% of American children say they are concerned about their weight...

Thanks for sharing this info.
As a Christian School administrator who is able to donate time to the school instead of collect a paycheck (due, of course, to this business) I am very interested in this issue of childhood obesity. I am very anxious for more suggestions on how to implement this at my school and others in my area.
