Yesterday I attended PS 20’s first Annual “B.L.U.E. Dolphin Fit Walk-a-thon”. If you are an avid ChicpeaJC reader you already know what a huge health and fitness advocate we are here! When Erica a member of the school’s PBSIS (Positive Behavior Support in Schools) committee invited me to join I had to go show my support.

 The kids walked from PS 20 160 Danforth Avenue to Columbia Park from 9:00am – 11:00am culminating with a DJ and a healthy lunch. They were so cute!! they were all cheering and dancing while walking it was adorable.

They’ve partnered with Alliance for a Healthier Generation and PS20 school has received a Bronze Recognition award.  To earn this award they had to met or exceed stringent standards by improving their nutrition and wellness services, and physical activity programs.

As part of their partnership with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, their school is working on fundraiser alternatives which both make money for their school and are a healthier alternative to candy and bake sales!

GO PS 20!!
