The Fitnessgram Philosophy is that “Health come from regular physical activity. Everyone can be active, regardless of age, gender or ability. Physical activity and �tness are for a lifetime. Find something you like and make it personal.”For over 10 years, Fitnessgram assessments have been conduct-ed to determine if a child falls in the healthy zone or unhealthy zone. Fitnessgram assessments are conducted during the Fall and Spring of the school year by your School Health Team. The Health Team tests all students in 5 components of the Fitnessgram which are: • Aerobic Capacity -PACER Run or 1-mile run • Muscular Endurance -Curl-ups • Muscular Strength -Push-ups • Body Composition -Height and Weight • Flexibility -Trunk lift -Sit-n-Reach Fitnessgram is more than an assessment! The data is bene�cial for students, schools, districts, states, and nationally. Students will be able to increase physical activity and promote healthy lifestyles. Fitnessgram at the school level can empower parents and sta� to collaborate and make improvements for a healthier school environment. At the district level the data reinforces and supports teachers to develop a curriculum that is standards based, and at the state and nation-al level; to recognize, and analyze data to look at state and national health programs to support our
local schools in their e�orts to create a safe, healthy learning environment for all students. This year students will be continuing with the Fitnessgram testing and completing the 5 components, also they will be receiving a Fitnessgram Student Report that is similar to a student’s report card. The Fitnessgram Student Report will include the results of the student’s Fitness-gram assessments from the 5 health components. The new Fitnessgram Student Report aide students in improving or maintain-ing their current �tness levels so that they know the relationship between their own scores to the
Fitnessgram Healthy Fitness Zone indicated on the report. Always continue to encourage and motivate students to work hard and be active so that they will enjoy bene�ts of a health-ier lifestyle. The next Fitnessgram testing will be Spring 2016 and each school’s Health Team will notify of dates and times. Any other questions regarding Fitness-gram contact school Health Team Leader.Frank, Julie (2015). Fitnessgram 2015: More Than Assessment. [Powerpoint Slides].

A Healthy You = A Healthy Familyby Elena Curley, TCRHCC Diabetes Prevention Health Educator
A Healthy You = A Healthy FamilyGetting your family to eat healthier is quite a challenge, especially when it comes to trying new healthy recipes that involve new fruits or veggies. One way to get kids excited about eating healthy is getting them involved in the cook-ing or meal prepping process (i.e. shopping for food, recipes, etc.). Through meal prepping you can give your kids an idea about plan-ning meals and learning how to prep and cook certain dishes.
It has been shown that kids who are more involved with cooking will start to make good decisions on their own and in regards to the foods they want to eat. That's not to say they'll suddenly want a salad instead of french fries, but the mealtime habits you help create now can lead to a lifetime of health-ier choices. The best way to encourage healthy eating is to start eating healthy yourself. Kids mimic what they see, if they see that you’re
eating healthier and exercising more they will want to do the same. So, send your kids the right mes-sage and make mindful changes in your lives that you want to see in your kids. Take them shopping, teach them how to prepare and put together meals/snacks. Here’s a little recipe that you can prep at home with your kids, remember to make cooking fun and get them involved.

Exercise Friendly Communitiesby Brooke Holiday, TCRHCC HPDP Assistant Program Director
According to the 2014 Fall student body mass index trends for the Tuba City Service Area schools, 45.6% of students were reported as either overweight or obese. To combat the obesity epidemic, the Tuba City Health Promotion Diabe-tes Prevention Program continues to team up with local schools and organizations to increase opportu-nities for health education and physical activities. This year we look forward to working with local chapters and their communities to expand
opportunities to be physical active and ways to build healthy lifestyle skills to prevent diabetes. Ideas about walking, running & biking trails are leading the way to trans-form communities into ‘Excercise Friendly Communities’. Thanks to promising new health initiatives coming from the Navajo Nation (NN), we will be partnering up to support the Navajo Nation Trails Initiative. The NN Trails Initiative is designed to help local communities develop trails to promote physical
activity. A team is currenlty working on developing a Trails Toolkit and organizing the Navajo Nation (NN) Trails Conference to help communi-ties with tips and guidance on how to develop trails in your communi-ties. The NN Trails Conference will be held at the Navajo Nation Museum in Window Rock, AZ on February 11 & 12, 2015.

The Office of Native and Spiritual Medicine (ONSM) now provides Dine traditional healing services that complement services provided by Tuba City Regional Health Care Corporation (TCRHCC). The program offers traditional intervention and counseling to TCRHCC patients who request for the service thru a writ-ten referral. The Office of Native and Spiritual Medicine works with TCRHCC doctors, nurses, and many more in the hospital to help their patient's healing process. "Traditional healing builds strong relationships between our patients and the health providers and staff," said Patrick Boone, coordinator of ONSM. He says it’s a much needed services for the elders, and anyone else who needs the services. “Medical and behavioral services are working in partnership with the Office of Native Medicine & Spiritu-al Medicine at TCRHCC to support physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness for their patients," said Boone. "To dine' people and most Native Americans, health is a continual process of staying strong spiritually, mentally, and physically," Boone explained. "This strength keeps away or overcomes the forces that cause illness." Through this creative and positive approach, TCRHCC Physicians and
Traditional Consultant are working closely in including patient's cultur-al beliefs and values when providing health care. Boone says, "Promoting Tradi-tional cultural healing is promoting our facility to embrace the practice of a holistic health care system."The Office of Native and Spiritual Medicine was created to promote partnership between traditional Native and Western medicine.The program offers the following services: • Traditional Dine' and Native American Healing Intervention• Traditional Counseling and Consultation• Dine' Cultural EducationOffice of Native and Spiritual Medi-cine services is available for all TCRHCC staff and patients (In-pa-tients and Out-Patient).
