HEALTHY AND FIT SCHOOL ADVISORY COMMITTEE Senate Bill 1627, the Healthy and Fit Kids Act of 2004, requires each public school in Oklahoma to establish a Healthy & Fit School Advisory Committee. A Healthy & Fit School Advisory Committee is an advisory group of at least six individuals who represent segments of the community (teacher, coach, student, administrator, parent, school nurse, health care professional, community member).  The group acts collectively to provide advice to the school regarding school health issues.  HFSAC are committed to creating healthy school environments so students may reach their learning potential. 

HEALTHY AND FIT SCHOOL ADVISORY COMMITTEE The primary focus of the Healthy and Fit School Advisory Committee is to: Establish healthy school nutrition environment Reduce childhood obesity Develop a quality physical education and activity program Establish, implement, and evaluate school wellness Healthier Schools = Healthier Students, Faculty, & Staff   Healthier Students, Faculty, & Staff = Improved academic achievement, Increased productivity, Increased morale, and Increased retention

RUNNING CLUB Measure your track or running area to determine the distance of one lap.Determine how you will keep track of how many laps a student runs. Many physical education teachers have them pick up a popsicle sticks as they complete a lap. At the end of the running time, the teacher records the number of laps they have finished based on the number of sticks they have accumulated. Set the days and times your running club will meet. Some clubs meet two days a week before or after school, while others run during the lunch hour and have the teacher on duty monitor the number of laps they complete. You may want to do both.Ø   They don’t necessarily have to “run”, they just have to complete a lap. So they can walk, skip, hop, twirl, or crawl. Any way they want to get in a lap. When the student completes 5 miles the will receive a prize as determined by the school and physical education teacher. ( It can be as simple as their name on a chart

Set up rewards for various mile intervals Set up rewards for various mile intervals. That is up to the individual school and physical education teacher. When the student reaches 75 miles, they will receive a certificate from the physical education department. When they reach 100 miles, they will receive a pin from the physical education department and have their name listed in the Tulsa World and the Superintendents Bulletin under the Tulsa Public Schools 100 Mile Club. Names may be turned in to the physical education department as they reach 75 and 100 miles. May 10, 2010 is the last day to turn in names to the physical education department.
