Third and fourth-grade students at Jackson Avenue School helped to celebrate the district’s receipt of the Bronze Medal Nutrition Award from the Healthier U.S. School Challenge program with a special performance from Broccoli Rob.
“Rob” presented students with an interactive and fun lesson on the importance of fruit and vegetables in their diets.
“A good eater is a good reader,” he told kids.
Broccoli Rob’s visit celebrated not only the school’s nutrition award but National School Lunch Week.
