This site was created to help parents who are emerging readers or who speak English as a second language to learn more about nutrition. Health education is more effective if students receive consistent messages throughout the school and at home. For more information on involving parents in physical and nutrition education for their children, refer to Module 8: Family and Community Involvement in the Louisiana School Health Index.
