Wellness Team Englewood Schools
Schools across the United States are urging more of their attention toward health and wellness - this is great! Unfortunately, many wellness initiatives fail or are unpopular because they focus on the negative side of health: taking things away. Englewood Schools chooses a different approach: improving wellness by ADDITION, not subtraction!
Matt Hoganson and Katie Kossette is running the school district's wellness team for the 2021-2022 school year.
Name: Katie Cossette, RDN, SNS
