Know Your Body program tests Rye students fitness
More than 300 Rye middle school pupils joined a 20 minute health screening as part of the federal funded Know Your Body program run by the American Health Foundation led by Dr Ernst Wynder. Students walked a Harvard designed endurance test, traced footprints, were weighed, measured, and had blood pressure checked then provided blood samples for cholesterol and red blood cell tests. The program targets seventh and eighth graders, aims to boost awareness of health and discourage smoking and drinking, with results stored in a six year health passport and computer printouts.
