Energizers
Energizers are classroom based physical activities that integrate physical activity with academic concepts.

Alliance for a Healthier Generation is a partnership between the American Heart Association and the William J. Clinton Foundation. We have come together to create a new generation of healthy Americans by addressing one of the nation’s leading public health threats – childhood obesity.

Action for Healthy Kids provides everything needed to start taking action—from initiating an after-school program to instituting a school wellness policy

From pedometers to heart monitors to mileage club kits, participating schools get tools they can use.
Plus, we provide each school with support materials, services such as individual assessments, and a toolkit of resources.

The program fosters a network of support: participating school districts hold a quarterly forum to establish common goals, develop action plans and exchange information so they can determine the most effective learning tools and practices. 

Some of our Participating schools include:

Linwood Schools

Atlantic City Schools

Ventnor Schools

Atlantic County Institute of Technology

Brigantine Schools

Estell Manor Schools

Egg Harbor City Schools

Absecon Schools

Galloway Township Schools

Egg Harbor Township Schools

Northfield Community School
