Health and wellness at LES
Llano Elementary School received a $4,000 grant from Dairy Max to be used to promote health and fitness at school. This year, the funds will be used to purchase wall art to encourage healthy food selections in the cafeteria and a fruit slicer to create more visually appealing fruit choices. Also, the physical education department will be getting a DrumFIT kit used to improve fine motor skills, movement, coordination, reflexes, spatial awareness, eye-hand coordination and cognitive association. Finally, LES will host a Family Food Fun Night on Tuesday, March 7, in the LES Cafeteria from 5:30-7 p.m. that will feature food preparation classes, food tasting and tips on healthy food choices.
