“ Just as an athlete must eat well to excel on the field of play, a student must eat well to perform in the classroom.”
Health and Wellness is an area of increasing importance, leading us to partner with the UMass Amherst School of Public Health and Health Sciences and Dr. Lisa Troy to conduct a comprehensive study on the effects of healthy eating and academic performance.
