About the Program: 

We call ourselves "HIAO" which means Healthy Inside and Outside. We want our bodies to be healthy inside as well as the environment we live in.  I teach a "Food Science Lab" and I incoportate cooking experiements that can be eaten!  Each week we have Lab that is coordinated with our Science, Math, Social Studies,  ELA classes. I also incorporate Wellness lessons into our cooking. We will soon be erecting an indoor garden because where we are located doesn't allow us to a school garden. We plan on erecting a community garden in the near future.
