Today is the 2nd Week of Bullying Prevention Awareness Month. Our theme
this Week is “We support One Another”. This theme was chosen to show how

you to everybody who treats each other with kindness and respect, which in
turn helps to keep bullying behaviors out of our school! Together, we can
continue to keep our school safe and welcoming for all! Don’t forget to
wear black on Wednesday to take a stand against bullying! Have a great week!

From your school nurse:
Quality nutrition and physical activity are essential for optimal growth,
development, and well-being. The global shift in diet intake of foods that
are high in fat and sugar but low in nutrients has contributed greatly to
childhood obesity.
The immediate and long-term effects of overweight and obesity impact the
physical, emotional, and social health of children and adolescents and
places them at a higher risk for the following health conditions (CDC,
2016a; Hoelscher, Kirk, Ritchie, & Cunningham-Sabo, 2013; NIH, 2017):
· high blood pressure and high cholesterol (cardiovascular disease);
· breathing problems such as asthma and sleep apnea;
· type 2 diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance;
· fatty liver disease, gallstones, gastro-esophageal reflux;
· psychological problems such as anxiety and depression;
· joint and musculoskeletal disorders;
· poor self-esteem and quality of life;
· social problems such as bullying; and
· some cancers
