鈥淲ellness lessons need to start early and I am thrilled to model good, healthy behavior by walking with students here at Wooldridge,鈥 said Superintendent Carstarphen. 鈥淪A国际传媒 ISD is dedicated to teaching healthy lifestyles and fitness as part of our curriculum in order to better prepare our students for a healthy and successful adult life.鈥
