Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
Hancock County Cooperative Extension Nutrition Assistant (NEP) joined the PE teacher at an Elementary school. The students being in seconds grade, where excited to know we would be working from the program, LEAP!
The class took the entry survey on the first day. It was found that less than half the students knew when they needed to wash their hands before they handled food. The NEP discussed how germs are everywhere. There were books read about how important it is to always wash our hands before we touch food, no matter what. The students played games, and learned ideas to help them remember to always wash their hands before they touched food.
After the program ended and the students took the exit survey, it was found that 78% of the class improved on knowing when they needed to wash their hands before they touched food.
