Network for a Healthy California

The Tulare County Office of Education Network for a Healthy California supports healthy eating and adequate physical exercise for Kindergarten through 12th grade students in school districts across Tulare County. It is a collaborative effort between teachers, food service professionals, dietitians, school nurses, parents, administrators, community members and students. Our goal is to encourage nutrition education for children so they have the desire and information needed to make healthy, positive choices for the rest of their lives.

Our partner districts include:

Alta Vista Elementary School District
Cutler-Orosi Unified School District
Dinuba Unified School District

Exeter Union High School District
