REAL FOOD RULES!
Our HCS students in grades 3-6 recently participated in an exciting and educational project through STEAM Fund's Full STEAM Ahead Healthy Habits initiative!
Working alongside teaching artists Beth and Scott Bierko, students explored the differences between real food and processed food, discussed healthy habits and nutrition, and even became songwriters themselves. Through collaboration, creativity, and meaningful conversations, students wrote and recorded their own energetic version of "Real Food Rules."
The project, completed in partnership with A Single Bite, gave students the opportunity to use their voices to promote healthy choices while building confidence through music and performance. The result is a fun and inspiring video that celebrates student creativity and encourages lifelong healthy habits. The video can be viewed at the address below!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfU7SN7TqjU
We would like to thank Beth and Scott Bierko, STEAM Fund, A Single Bite, and all of our administrators, teachers, and staff who helped make this experience possible. We are incredibly proud of our students for their hard work, enthusiasm, and outstanding performance!
This program was made possible through a generous grant from the George A. and Margaret Mee Charitable Foundation.
Great job, Wildcats!

We are especially proud of our seniors, who have received numerous compliments from ship staff and fellow travelers for their kindness, enthusiasm, and outstanding behavior throughout the trip.
