We are excited to be a CATCH middle school this
year. CATCH Middle School is a program designed to promote
physical activity and healthy food choices. CATCH employs a
holistic approach to child health by targeting multiple aspects
of the school environment and involving classroom teachers,
school food service staff, physical education (PE) teachers,
students’ families, and the broader school community in a range
of health promoting activities. Evaluation of CATCH Middle
School components have demonstrated effects in reducing TV
viewing, increasing physical activity, and healthy food
consumption. Be on the lookout for CATCH information throughout
the school year.
