Congratulations Satchel Ford!
Satchel Ford is one of 12 schools across the country to help kickoff a special documentary by HBO. The network's series, called The Weight of the Nation, raises awareness about childhood obesity and its dangers. As part of the program to get kids to make healthier food choices, a stand-alone salad bar and water filtration system were installed.
The weight of the Nation premieres Monday, May 14th at 8pm ET on HBO. All films will be made available in English and Spanish and will also stream free of charge on www.HBO.com. HBO's goal is to implement 100 salad bars and 100 water taps in schools across the country by mid-September.
