"I would strongly encourage schools to participate in Health eTools for Schools. By educating our youth early in life about the benefits of eating wisely and being active, we can help create healthier adults. We believe that healthier students are less likely to be absent from school, and may even earn better grades.” Yvonne Cook, President, Highmark Foundation
