DALLAS (AP) - Michelle Obama congratulates Dallas schools for setting a health example to their students by encouraging kids to eat right and exercise.
The First lady stopped in North Texas to promote and celebrate the second anniversary of her her Let's Move! campaign. The campaign addresses child obesity and ways to lead a healthier life. Lets Move! focuses on creating a healthy start for children, empowering parents and caregivers, providing healthy food in schools, improving access to healthy, affordable food, and increasing physical activity
Since the Healthier U.S. Schools Challenge was established in 2004 Dallas school district has more schools participating and achieving the highest level of success than any other state.
In a fun way to highlight the importance of healthy food and active bodies, Michelle Obama helped judge a cooking contest between cooks from Bravo's "Top Chef" with "hype" assistance from the Dallas Cowboys and student "sous-chefs" (SOO SHEHFS) from Nancy Moseley Elementary School in southeastern Dallas.
In the end, she pronounced them all winners.
