Fresno Public School Overweight/Obesity Rankings & Profiles 

Objectives of this project:

1) Create a health report card of public schools in FUSD and CUSD (grades 1-12) that will contain the following information and health indicators:

• Percentage of students that are overweight
• Percentage of students that are obese
• Percentage of students passing state-wide physical fitness tests
• Average weekly duration of in-school physical activity

2) Rank the schools based on the above information.  Schools will be divided into 3 main categories (grades 1-5, 6-8, 9-12) and ranked in their respective categories.

School rankings and profiles will be published annually and made available to the public. 

**This publication will allow us and other organizations to learn about the rate of overweight/obesity in Fresno public schools and take necessary action ( i.e., afterschool physical activity interventions, etc.).
