Portsmouth Middle School education program for spinal health and nutrition

Dr. Misty Kosciusko will be speaking to the 5th and 6th grade this Thursday morning about proper nutrition and spinal health. "Sit Up Straight and Eat Your Veggies" is a program that teaches children about what a proper nutritional diet consists of and why it's healthy for them. It also teaches children the benefits to sitting up straight and introduces a series of exercises from "Straighten Up America" that assist with spinal health. (These exercises should be done at home with friends or parents for best results)
