I am forming this group to get other parents in the Plano school district together to advocate for the Food is Elementary program (national non-profit) in Plano schools. "Food is Elementary (FIE) is a hands-on curriculum that teaches students about food and nutrition through multi-cultural lesson plans integrated with the academic disciplines. Students learn basic concepts about nutrition, cooking, exercise and health as they taste new foods" (Demas 1994). All of this is integrated into the curriculum already in place at the school. If you are interested in helping me get this into our school system, please join. It's a great cause, but I can't do it alone. Thank you!!

    "I am completely with you on this. Our kids need to understand nutrition if they are going make good food choices. I am in the health and fitness industry, so this is a top priority for me and my family. Can't wait to learn more."
