Middle schoolers can take care of their hearts in fun and simple ways! Staying active during PE and recess, choosing healthy snacks, drinking plenty of water, and getting enough sleep all help keep hearts strong. Managing stress by taking breaks, talking to trusted adults, and practicing kindness toward others also makes a big difference.
This month, letâs encourage our students to build healthy habits now that will last a lifetimeâbecause a healthy heart starts young! đđââïžđ #WeAreBenton
