Healthy Kids

     New Mexico PTA is committed to focusing on the fitness of the whole child. Parent involvement is essential to a child’s success. Involvement at home is just as important as involvement at school. Nutrition, physical fitness, a safe home and school, and the support and the love of an adult in a child's life is critical.

      

Throughout the year, we will bring you updated information on these topics in the form of articles and resources.  Visit National PTA’s Programs: Healthy Lifestyles, for more information on Health and Fitness topics.
