Bancroft-Rosalie School joins the Educator Health Alliance Wellness Program

Educator Health Alliance Wellness is a voluntary program offered to all school groups by Blue Cross Blue Shield. Staff members can choose to participate in any or all of the activities available throughout the year.

Colleen Elsasser and Judy Ross are the Bancroft-Rosalie Wellness coordinators. 


Every other month (October, December, February, April, June and August) staff members have the option to 

participate in a fun, online wellness program focusing on a different topic each time. Incentives are 

also included with each program and all who complete the program will be entered into a drawing 

for a gift card.

February is Healthy Directions Month
Program Guidelines for February 2013:

• Enjoy 30 minutes of exercise each day.
• Eat at least 3 servings of vegetables and 2 servings of fruit each day
• Read Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 95 pages

Participants must meet the guidelines on 20 of the 28 days in February to have their name entered into the drawing.

So if you see me on the school treadmill after school or walking home from Ru-De's with a bag of fruit and vegetables, it is because I am working to meet my exercise and nutrition goal for that day.
