TATE – PROJECT T.A.T.E. (TAKING ACTION TO EDUCATE)

Nurses and dieticians from four local schools organized monthly “Active Family Nights” to help parents and kids learn easy ways to have fun and be more physically active!  The program included healthy foods and free Body Mass Index screening to measure changes in nutrition and exercise for participants.

PROJECT  T.A.T.E.’s  Active Family Night took a giant step forward at four Tate County Schools  when the Community Health Council presented the schools with the wildly popular “Dance Dance Revolution” equipment as a part of their effort to get kids more physically active. 

Kids lined up for their turn on Dance Dance Revolution at Coldwater Elementary , the first school to receive their new equipment.  Active Family Night at Coldwater Elementary also included fun with the giant parachute and hula hoops!

East Tate, Strayhorn and Senatobia Elementary have also received Dance Dance Revolution Equipment.
