America's Healthiest Schools | Field Elementary One of America's Healthiest Schools | NBC 7 News at 4

One of America's healthiest schools happens to be right here in San Diego. Field elementary has earned national recognition for its commitment to student wellness. And to celebrate, the school hosted a special event with a Hands-On Cooking Demonstration for Students and families. Representatives from Del Monte Foods and Alliance for a Healthier Generation showcased how to prepare easy and affordable, nutritious meals. We know with the food prices that are rising recently, you know parents and families are looking for a way to balance both cost and nutrition so we can really educate them. And we have a lot of resources as well, like recipes, meal planning resources on our website to help parents and guide parents to make healthy solutions for their children and their family. Organizers say today's event highlights a broader national push to make health education more accessible to schools and communities across the country.
