In middle school, you have more say in deciding things for yourself. You can also help to make your school healthier. There’s a lot you can do to get more healthy food choices and more opportunities for physical activity for everyone.

There are short-term and long-term advantages to making healthier foods and regular physical activity priorities at your school.
