We are thrilled to announce that our Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) kicked off this week! This initiative, supported by the USDA, aims to promote healthy snacking habits among our elementary students and introduce them to a variety of fresh produce. On Tuesday, our elementary students enjoyed trying kiwis for the first time. Did you know that kiwi skins are edible? They add a bit of extra fiber and nutrients, so if your child enjoyed them, feel free to encourage tasting the skin next time! On Thursday, our elementary students explored the unique flavors of baby bok choy. This leafy green is not only delicious but also packed with vitamins and minerals. We encourage you to discuss these fruits and vegetables with your children at home and continue fostering their curiosity about healthy eating. Thank you for your support as we promote nutritious choices in our school!
