Stephanie Quiles May 23, 2020 by Taylor Walsh “I had the opportunity to attend Lakeside today for a total of four hours and I loved it. The students were really involved in the tasks that they had carried out, from cutting broccoli to mincing garlic, and they all behaved so well. It was a joy to see their excitement! I was just as intrigued and informed and was delighted to learn a healthy meal that I could make at home for my family as well.”
Sandra Lokuta May 23, 2020 by Taylor Walsh “The Wellness Program offered to the Lakeside AVID students was engaging, informative, and so necessary for our student population. The curriculum was comprehensive and focused on all aspects of wellness. The students participated in hands-on experiences and left with knowledge and skills that they can apply in real life now and in the future.”

What I appreciate most about the program is that it doesn’t just address one aspect of wellness. This program allowed me to educate the students on proper nutrition, physical activity as well as mental health. Giving kids the opportunity to feel safe and confident that their teachers care and are willing to listen to them is something we as educators and health care professional should all strive for, and that is what I saw with this program.”
