Healthy at Home for CPS:
Nutrition and Physical Activity Curricula
The Consortium to Lower Obesity in Chicago Children (CLOCC) is providing a database of resources to support educators and families working towards Healthy CPS. We understand that there is an overwhelming amount of information available to educators, so we have carefully chosen a select number of tools to highlight in each area. To learn more about CLOCC’s work with CPS, please visit our Schools webpage and feel free to contact us if you have any questions: info@CLOCC.net.
In this section, you will find a number of recommended physical activity and nutrition curricula for a wide age-range of students. Most curricula are free for download online and compliant with Healthy CPS criteria.
