Wellness Committee

We are proud to have won the first ever Commit to be Fit! Award from Channel 10 last May and we want to continue working hard to stay fit & healthy in all areas of our lives!  
 
You will see that many of our initiatives this year focus around the theme of:
 

Ridgewood Fit! Healthy: Body, Mind, and Spirit.


1.   Healthy Bodies- Eating good food & getting lots of exercise.  

·      Fresh fruit smoothies for breakfast

·      Whole wheat & vegetarian options for lunch

·      No synthetic food dyes or artificial flavoring

·      (This means no bakery cupcakes or bright colored punch for birthdays or parties please!!)


2.   Healthy Minds- Learning new & engaging things.

·      Looking at 21st Century Skills and how to help our children be creative, collaborative, adaptable, communicate well, and be critical thinkers



3.   Healthy Spirit- Feeling respected & respecting others

·      We will institute a school-wide behavior plan this year that stresses the following:    


                At Ridgewood, We…
· Take Care of Others

· Take Care of Ourselves

· Take Care of Our School
