Ms. Hale’s 3rd grade class

 NEP from Garrard County worked with Ms. Hale’s 3rd grade class at Lancaster Elementary School for 6 Months. There were 21 students in the classroom, I came once a month for 6 months. Over this time we had lessons on germ control, good handwashing skills, and healthy snacks to try to get into our daily diets.

At the end of the classroom visits all 21 students in this class showed improvement in one or more areas of their diets. This is also an ongoing yearly project where I am in all 3 of Garrard County Elementary schools
