Our Work in Missouri

In Missouri, we’re making it easier for kids to develop healthy habits.

More than 760 schools serving over 360,000 students across the state have joined Healthier Generation's Healthy Schools Program, creating healthier school environments for children to thrive. Since 2007, 112 Missouri schools have been recognized with National Healthy Schools Awards for their outstanding efforts.

We’ve also made it easier for nearly 5,000 youth in 40 out-of-school time programs to eat right and move more through our Healthy Out-of-School Time Initiative.

Success Stories

Hear from school champions from just two of the many districts we work with in Missouri: Rockwood School District, enrolled with the Healthy Schools Program since 2013; and Raymore-Peculiar School District, enrolled since 2011.

We’ve used Healthier Generation's list of items that meet the standards for vending machines and the Product Calculator for Smart Snacks, and passed those onto our Parent Teacher Organizations.

Since enrolling in the Healthy Schools Program, we’ve transformed our campus into a healthier one that encourages everyone to fuel for optimal achievement – whether that’s in the pool, in the classroom or even at home.
