We are a School of the Medical Arts. We often get asked, "What does that mean? What do you all do as a School of the Medical Arts Elementary School?" Each month we explore a focus related to our magnet. November's Focus is Nutrition Wellness.
November’s Nutrition Wellness focus helps students explore how food, water, movement, rest, and healthy habits support learning and overall well-being.
Family Wellness Conversations:
• What foods are special in our family or culture?
• What helps us feel energized?
• What is one way our family enjoys movement?
• What is a favorite food memory?
We encourage families to choose one activity to do together:
• Read a food-themed book.
• Prepare or discuss a meal.
• Drink water during a shared activity.
• Take a walk or enjoy another form of movement.
• Visit a local garden, market, or community food resource.
Share your nutrition wellness connection at home with Ms. Worthen @ worthenm1@duvalschools.org.
