Nooksack, Sumas, and Everson Elementary Schools are making national news by working to support and improve the health of our children and our community. As a part of their effort, healthy items are featured on their menus and physical education and other activity emphasized. Their efforts are part of the HealthierUS School Challenge. Sponsored by the USDA Food and Nutrition Service, the initiative encourages all schools to take leadership in helping students to make healthier eating and physical activity choices.
