Looking Forward to Fall

Posted by Annelise Cohon on August 12, 2013

 

As summer comes to an end, I look forward to another great back to school season. This time of year is always full of new beginnings. Whether it’s a new class of students, a newly renovated school building or a new job there are lots of things to be excited about.

NEA HIN has some great NEW resources for educators. You can order these and all of your favorite NEA HIN resources using our online store. Here are a few of our favorites:

  • Rx for Understanding (Grades 9-12) – This resource is a standards-based, cross-curricular teaching guide geared for students in grades 9-12. It contains 10 lessons that give students an opportunity to learn key concepts about the misuse, abuse, and proper use of prescription drugs.
  • Healthy Steps for Healthy Lives 2013® – This resource was developed for educators to help support your ongoing efforts to teach students about being healthy. Parents, after-school programs, and caregivers can also use the materials in the program.
  • How YOU Can Support Healthy Schools – This resource has simple steps you can take to support healthy food choices at your school.

NEA HIN also wants to acknowledge the 2013 NEA HIN Champions. NEA HIN “Champions” are NEA leaders who believe and are willing to help spread the word that students need to be healthy to learn and thrive.  Join us in acknowledging these Champions by sharing their inspiring stories.

Have a happy back to school season from NEA HIN!
