The Main Goal
Develop a walking track on campus to promote physical activity
The Purpose
Having the track gives students another option for physical activity during recess. Instead of sitting and talking or sitting by themselves. They are encouraged to walk and socialize with one another.
They shared their own success story of a student who was very shy and would sit along the wall during recess. Once the walking track was put into place, she decided to start walking it. Eventually others joined her and they began to mingle. The walking track is not only promoting physical activity but also more social interactions and development.
Improving the culture of physical activity in our state by providing awareness, education, guidance, and opportunities.
