The Fitness & Nutrition
Parental Involvement Pledge
tm

AS A PARENT, GRANDPARENT, OR CARING ADULT, I pledge to support my child's participation in physical activities and healthy eating, to be an active role model, and to include healthy eating and physical activity in family events. I Pledge to:

  • Exercise each week. For every one hour of exercise, I can add two hours to my life.
  • Positively influence my child's eating and physical activity behaviors.
  • Build nutrition knowledge and skills that helps my child make healthy eating and physical activity choices.
  • Teach my child the short- and long-term benefits of a physically active and healthful lifestyle.
  • Participate in the development of a wellness policy for my public schools.

THEREFORE AS A PARENT, GRANDPARENT, OR CARING ADULT, I hereby give my pledge of commitment to help our community's children achieve a truly independent future. My declaration of responsibility and commitment to my public schools is stated in these five self-evident truths as spoken by President Woodrow Wilson:

  • As Americans, we are the owners of the public school system.
  • As owners, we bear a responsibility to participate in the system.
  • Accountability for our public schools, their safety, and its employees and its funding rests with us and the rest of the system's owners.
  • Our children's future depends on the improvement of the public
    schools.
  • And this improvement depends on our participation.
