HEALTHY+SCHOOLS+PROGRAM

Vansville is part of the Healthy Schools Program, a requirement of all Prince George's County Public Schools. Under the American Heart Association, the Healthy Schools Program is geared towards promoting a healthy lifestyle through healthy nutritional choices, health education, and phyiscal education opportunities before, during, and after the school day. The creation of the VES Garden allow students to appreciate the need for healthy choices through the growth of fresh fruits and vegetables, which coincides with Vansville's value of caring for the environment and being a green school. We have applied for various grants based upon the Healthy Schools Program, and if successful, have allocated various funds towards the VES Garden. Should have any questions, suggestions, or concerns, feel free to contact me at the information below.
