In recognition of teachers, administrators, health champions, community members and students taking initiative to build healthier school environments, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is recognizing Michigan schools for fostering healthy eating, physical activity habits and tobacco-free lifestyles, and impacting more than 14,000 students during the 2020-2021 school year.
Out of only 28 Michigan School Wellness Awards that were given out, 10 of those schools were members of the Project Healthy Schools community. Congratulations to the PHS school winners! Your continued effort to create a healthier community for your school is both remarkable and inspiring.
