Did you see the article about Northfield in The Baltimore Sun? We are so proud of all that we do to incorporate active learning and movement into our students’ days.  As we have mentioned before, we truly believe in all of the research that supports healthy kids being more successful students.  The evidence that links healthy eating and physical activity to academic achievement is overwhelmingly positive.  

We recently read another article that compared exercise to ADHD medicine.  As we see an increase in students diagnosed with ADHD, and those who struggle with inattentiveness, we know frequent movement and exercise breaks are even that much more critical to student success.
