   Active Schools: A variety of opportunities are available for schools to add more
physical activity into the school day, including additional physical education class-
es, before–and afterschool programs, recess, and opening school facilities for stu-
dent and family recreation in the late afternoon and evening.

   Active Communities: Mayors and community leaders can promote physical fit-
ness by working to increase safe routes for kids to walk and ride to school; by
revitalizing parks, playgrounds, and community centers; and by providing fun and
affordable sports and fitness programs.
