Currently 75% of Grant Countians are below 200% poverty and 2770 are food insecure.  To provide nutrition and physical activity information to the children of these families, the Grant County Supplemental Nutrition Senior Assistant offered classes to both school districts in the county.  The Grant County Supplemental Nutrition Education program senior assistant, in conjunction with Williamstown Independent Schools and Grant County Schools, conducted Literacy, Eating, and Activity for Primary Youth Health (LEAP) classes in the second-grade classrooms.  Each month, a book and lesson were presented to the second-grade students as well as giving the students an opportunity to prepare a simple and healthy snack.  As a result of the program, 88% of the students improved in one or more skills consistent with Federal Dietary Guidelines.  As a result of the program, 73% of students improved in handling food safely and 53% improved their physical activity practices.  For the final class of the year, students were allowed to participate in a physical activity day where they could play on the playground, play with beach balls, frisbees, and jump ropes.  Each student was able to take home a jump rope to use during the summer to increase their physical activity at home.  One of the teachers stated, “the kids do so much better in class after getting to play outside and burn off some of their energy.”  One of the students stated, “I thought that physical activity was gym exercises, I didn’t know it was playing outside too!” Students agreed to spend more time being active this summer.  All students either tried a new food or a cooking skill in this school year.
