Physical Activity Helps Disadvantaged Kids in School

In a recent survey, parents were asked “Has 100 Mile Club participation made a positive difference in your child’s school and life experiences?

94.4% responded yes, including 100 Mile Club helps them feel connected to other students.

100 Mile Club’s free program ensures that every student deserves to experience and learn in an atmosphere of respect where they can develop and maintain friendships with other students and teachers in their schools and communities.

“We really need to ensure that physical activity does not become an area schools feel they can legitimately sacrifice to drive up academic attainment.
It has a crucial part to play.”
-Michelle R. Ellefson. Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge.
