A positive school climate + school meals = academic success.

Research Reinforces the Importance of a Positive School Climate and School Meals in Achieving Academic Success.
|
|
Research has found that a positive school climate improves academic achievement, sparking renewed interest in a whole child approach to learning. A research report from the Learning Policy Institute describes how teachers, state and district policymakers, and school leaders can support students’ healthy growth and development. Separately, research continues to reinforce the link between school meal programs and improvements in the classroom.
Fuel Up to Play 60 aligns with the latest trends in education and offers strategies that help educators create a positive school climate that supports student success. The Playbook includes strategies for implementing school meal programs, which play a critical role in student health, well-being and academic success, improving school menus that integrate farm-to-school practices, and more!
