MNPS & NashvilleHealth Wellness Week 2023 This year’s Wellness Week was a big success for our Metro Nashville students.
Each day throughout the week of May 8-12 focused on a different theme that allowed them to learn about and practice healthy lifestyles.
We are hopeful last week provided the foundation for healthy habits all year long!
Students of all ages learned about physical activity, the importance of water, protecting the earth, nutrition, and emotional well-being. 
NashvilleHealth is proud to award $5,000 in prizes to the top participating schools. Congratulations to our Wellness Week Winners!
