Local Programs

Children spend the majority of their day at school and eat one or more meals, plus snacks, during the school day. Schools have the opportunity to provide healthier foods in the classroom and cafeteria, and to increase physical activity throughout the school day creatively. In addition to helping establish healthy habits, schools want to do what they can to make sure their students are ready and able to learn.

The 5210 program is flexible and can be easily woven into your busy day. We support the schools, childcare centers, and out-of-school time programs by partnering with teachers, nurses, PE teachers, nutrition directors, cafeteria managers, principals, and more. We’ll help you assess what you’re already doing well, identify areas for improvement, and implement an action plan to meet your unique goals. We are here to help you develop healthier students. They perform better academically and have better behavior in the classroom.

Promote healthy messaging within your school to support students and families in making the healthy choice the easy choice. Schools are encouraged to participate in these FREE programs.

Healthy Cafeterias

Participating schools from the Washoe County School District have joined in this important initiative to help kids recognize and make healthier choices at school. Healthy cafeteria initiatives modify the food environment during school lunch periods, prominently displaying, marketing, and increasing the convenience of healthy foods and providing many healthy options, especially fresh, whole foods and foods cooked from scratch. Healthy cafeteria initiatives can focus on food served through the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) as well as competitive or à la carte offerings.
