The school district is integrating physical activity into school children's day.
The Los Angeles Unified School District announced its support for "Let's Move! Active Schools" at its "Move It!" Challenge and Health Fair at Dodger Stadium Saturday.
Sam Kass, executive director of First Lady Michelle Obama's "Let's Move!" campaign and senior policy advisor for Nutrition, said, "By integrating physical activity into students' lives before, during and after school, LAUSD is helping young people build the foundation they need to grow up healthy."
"We are excited to collaborate with 'Let's move! Active Schools," said the district's Senior Deputy Superintendent, Michelle King. "We are proud to say that hundreds of our schools have already been granted The HealthierUS School Challenge awards and we are pleased that Washington continues to celebrate the various efforts and policies we have implemented to promote health and wellness in the District."
