One Class' Pledge

This year, the students in Peter Pham's class at K.R. Smith Elementary in San Jose made a pledge. Inspired by the fit for learning program, these fourth- and fifth-graders resolved to exercise, eat healthy foods, and cut down on non-nutritious food and beverages. Mr. Pham chronicles their efforts in this eight-minute video.
