Former Seattle Seahawks player Marcus Trufant and representatives from Washington Dairy Council participated in a Fuel Up To Play 60 assembly Nov. 28 at Everett’s Gateway Middle School. They presented the school with a $10,000 Hometown Grant to enhance its Breakfast in the Courtyard program.
During the assembly, Trufant talked to the students about the importance of eating healthy and being physically active for 60 minutes a day.
The Breakfast in the Courtyard program will offer kids healthy breakfast food as they get off the bus. The goal is to increase low-income students’ participation in breakfast programs.
Ergotron also donated 30 of its standing desk stations for the school to use in classrooms.
