March is Eat Healthy Rhode Island month 2016!
Hi DCSĀ Families and Friends!
March is for munching all kinds of healthy foods!
Our school (grades 3 & 4), participated in a state wide Eat Healthy RI poster contest. The theme was "What does a healthy body look like after eating nutritious foods?". The children's posters, who participated, are displayed in the hall near my office. They are wonderfully nutritious looking! The winners will be announced March 9th. On March 9, please ask your child to celebrate Eat Healthy RI day by wearing green!
MyPlate is a reminder to find your healthy eating style and build it throughout you lifetime. Everything you eat and drink matters. The right mix can help you be healthier now and in the future. This means:
-Focus on variety, amount, and nutrition.
-Choose foods and beverages with less saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars.
-:Start with small changes to build healthier eating styles.
-Support healthy eating for everyone.
Eating healthy is a journey shaped by many factors, including our stage of life, situations, preferences, access to food, culture, traditions, and the personal decisions we make over time. All your food and beverage choices count. MyPlate offers ideas and tips to help you create a healthier eating style that meets your individual needs and improves your health.

Have a great month eating healthy!
