Roscommon Area Public Schools

HEALTHIEST SCHOOLS IN AMERICA 2011!

Last spring, the USDA announced schools who met the challenge to improve the nutrition standards in foods served to students.  In the Healthier US School Challenge (HUSSC), Roscommon Middle School was the ONLY school in Michigan to be awarded for the honor of "Gold Award of Distinction".  Award winners were honored in a White House reception given by Michelle Obama and the "Let's Move" campaign, whose goal is to end childhood obesity within a single generation.  Char Goddard, Chartwell's Food Service Director for RAPS, and former RMS Principle Ron Alden went to the White House to recieve the award.  We are extremely proud of the work done by Char and Ron and everyone who supported their efforts to improve the health of our students.
