Pedometer Program

Back to Home


Word of God School has been selected by the Diocese of Pittsburgh Department of Catholic Schools to participate in the Highmark Cross Blue Shield "We Count Pedometer Program".

    Through the "We Count Pedometer Program", every student will receive a pedometer and "We Count" curriculum materials to reinforce the lessons being taught in school and help the students sent a tangible goal.  The students will learn about childhood obesity, physical activity and good nutrition while recording steps walked each week throughout an 18 week period. 

 

      

Each day students clip their pedometers to their waists to track the number of steps they take.
