Liberty School Students Walk the Walk

Liberty School recently held an all-school walk-a-thon promoting wellness, fitness and school spirit.

Liberty School students rallied together last week with Chicago White Sox mascot, Southpaw for a walk-a- thon dedicated to the idea of exercise, making healthy food choices and a school fundraiser. The event was hosted by the Liberty School Parents for Education (PFE) that started with a presentation on the newly adopted five food group concept, MyPlate. Southpaw assisted in teaching students about fueling the mind and body with healthy foods, getting sufficient sleep, and daily exercise.

The walk a thon followed immediately afterwards and raised money for school-wide activities and programs for the students.
