I haven’t read all the posts yet, but rather than do the BMI thing, how about bringing back mandatory gym for all kids in all grades. Encourage sports, and get the junk out of the schools. AND—— keep the ice cream truck away from the school when kids get out for the day.
encourage sports?
The kids might start to COMPETE against each other!
Do you know how many educators think sports and competition are a bad thing?
It’s silly, I know - but true.
