Going Back to School

Author: Bethony Morris

Planning Unit: Hancock County CES

Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

February 9, 2021 Hancock County Cooperative Extension Expanded Food Nutrition Education Program Assistant (EFNEP) was told they could start in person programing again!  EFNEP reached out to a local elementary school about coming in person to start nutrition programing again.  With both EFNEP and the school following the covid guide lines, we were able to start meeting. 

 

EFNEP decided a great way to keep germs from spreading was to ask the physical education teacher if he wanted to work together, that kept EFNEP from going to all the classes.  The teacher was excited about teaching nutrition and physical activity together.   This was a great opportunity to teach better nutrition habits, safety from germs and physical activity.

EFNEP was able to meet with four different classes, and successfully graduate 89 students.
