 Childhood and adolescent obesity  Research on exercise and academic performance.  Children can learn about healthy living throughout all school years, K-12.

1 in every 3 children in U.S. are overweight or obese (tfco,2010). 1/3 of children born in 2000 will develop diabetes (tfco, 2010). Today’s kids-shorter lifespan than their parents (tfco, 2010)?

Daily physical education for children K minutes per week for elementary schools 225 minutes per week for high schools (NASPE, 2004)

 CDC (  Surgeon General (  Task Force on Childhood Obesity (Michelle Obama) (tfco,2010)  American Heart Association ( All call for increase in Physical Education for all students K-12.

 Easton elementary schools- 2 times per week for thirty minutes-60 minutes per week  Easton Middle School, Grades 7&8: get only one 36 day rotation for 86 minutes per day-average of 86 minutes per week.  Easton High School: 9,11,12: Three days out of a six day cycle all year or approximately minutes per week. 10 th grade,one semester, 3 days out of 6 day cycle minutes per week, but only1/2 year.

 Several studies suggest a potential link (Trost &van der Mars, 2010). ◦ C.D.C. literature review determined positive associations with academic and cognitive behavior and-  school-based P.E.  Recess  Classroom physical activity  Extracurricular physical activities (sports, play programs) (tfco, 2010)

 John J. Ratey, M.D. Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain(2008) ◦ Naperville, Illinois high school case study  Low obesity rate.  High scores on state and international assessments.  Fitness levels higher than national norms.( (Ratey,2008)

 K-12 daily PE would make it more likely that: ◦ Children will adopt healthy habits. ◦ Children will become more physically active. ◦ Children will stay physically active as adults. ◦ Children will learn how to become fit and stay fit.

 EASD is currently writing new K-12 Health and PE curriculum with ESU. ◦ Valuable time and monetary resources  EASD obesity rates are high.  EAHS is in “Corrective Action” with State.  Fall in line with NASPE’s, CDC, White House, Surgeon General, and AHA recommendations.

 WE CANNOT AFFORD NOT TO!  National cost of childhood obesity is $14 billion. (Marder&Chang, 2005)  School districts can implement low and no- cost interventions (tfco, 2010).  Raising healthy and fit children should be our priority as they are the future of our nation.
