Subject: First Public school to go vegetarian- in New York
This is GREAT!!! Check this out. It’s a MUST read. It’s an article regarding the first public school to go vegetarian. They are really on the right track. My favorite quote from this article is:
“We know that when students eat a healthy diet, they’re able to focus better. Their immune systems are stronger, so they’re sick less, and then they’re in school more and they’re able to focus and concentrate better, and therefore learn better. There’s research about that,” said Amie Hamlin, the executive director of New York Coalition for Healthy School Food, which has worked with P.S. 244 for several years.
