The Fall Healthy Futures Challenge starts Sept 1st

Is your school registered?

Kids that are active grow into healthier adults. They also perform better academically and have fewer social and behavioral problems.

Healthy Futures has provided elementary schools across Alaska with a Fall and Spring Healthy Futures Challenge for nearly 20 years. Each time a child meets their goals for being physically active and completes a monthly activity log they are building the habit of living a healthy active lifestyle!

How it works:

It’s Simple and it's Free! Students from participating schools who are active for at least 60 minutes a day, 15 days a month, and record their activity on the Healthy Futures Activity Log are awarded fun incentives. Schools, students and teachers are eligible for prizes for outstanding participation.

We are COVID adaptive. We have activity logs modified for at home or in school learning. Good physical activity habits are more important than ever during this time!

What you can do:

Elementary School Teachers

Be the champion for your school! If you have not done so already, take five minutes to register today! Our program is free and we'll send you all the resources you need to get started!

All registered schools will receive our new Healthy Futures Challenge poster featuring Alaska's brightest sports stars!

Parents

School Administrators

Research shows children who are physically active perform better academically, have improved socials skills and fewer behavioral problems. The Healthy Futures Challenge is great and affordable investment in our youth. Find teachers within your schools and districts to champion the Healthy Futures Challenge and support them in building a culture that promotes a healthy physical lifestyle!

Kids

Get out and get active! Try to play every day at least 60 minutes! Complete your activity log every month and turn it in to win prizes. The more months you complete, the better you will feel. And the better chance you have to win your school's grand prize at the end of the year. Have fun!
