Getting Fit While Supporting Schools
We know our parents and other boosters want to support our schools, and we are working to try to find healthier ways to help them do so. Selling candy and other unnecessary and unhealthy items are giving way to more productive fundraisers, like a 5K race held recently at Durham School of the Arts.
The school’s athletic booster club got the idea that they could raise awareness about exercise and fitness while also raising funds for athletic teams. That’s why they encouraged students, parents and community supporters to secure sponsors for their participation in a 5K race.
Check out our latest DPS Wellness video to see how it went. This edition also features DPS’s first annual Employee Health and Wellness Fair. Our employees learned a lot from the community partners who took part.
