Coach Calhoun with Move to Learn came to visit our campus, Wednesday, October 2nd. He had the students moving and grooving with smiles and laughter.
Move to Learn is based on a simple concept: When kids get to move at school, schools get better.
Not only does student health improve, but academic performance improves, too. In fact, numerous scientific studies have confirmed that the more exercise a student gets, the better his or her grades are likely to be. And that’s not all. In several studies of Mississippi students, more fitness was associated with better behavior and less absenteeism.
Move to Learn is designed to help teachers raise student fitness levels and, in turn, raise student achievement.
