GREENE COUNTY Atlanta Falcons donate to GES Greensboro Elementary School students will have the opportunity to experi ence a new way to exercise this school year during their physical education (P.E.) classes, thanks to a donation from the Atlanta Falcons. On Aug. 21, the Atlanta Falcons Youth Foundation unveiled flag football equipment dona tions to elementary and middle schools in every one of the state’s 159 counties. GES is the only school in the county that will receive the NFL flag football kit. Through the new ini tiative, Rise Up. 159, the Falcons are donating NFL flag football kits for use in RE. classes at 80 elemen tary schools and 79 middle schools. The kits include 50 flag belts and Falcons NFL flag reversible jerseys, footballs, water bottles, T-shirts and other supplies. During the 2017-18 school year, RE. teachers at the 159 schools will use NFL flag football curric ula to increase the time children spend in physical activity. The initiative will reach more than 30,000 boys and girls in Georgia schools. “Rise Up! 159 brings children from every Geor gia county into the Falcons family” said Mark Sim mons, an Atlanta Falcons associate and part of the staff team that reviews and awards grants. “NFL Flag Football elevates the fun factor for RE. classes, and that means more children will spend more time in physical activity.” To implement Rise Up! 159, the Falcons are partnering with Georgia Shape, Gov. Deal’s state wide initiative that brings together governmental, philanthropic, academic and business communities to address childhood obe sity. In the official proclama tion designating the week of Aug. 21 as NFL Flag Football Week in Georgia, Gov. Deal recognized that NFL flag football partic ipation has increased 19 percent annually since 2011, and over the past two years the Falcons have trained 400 RE. teachers in nine school districts to implement the NFL flag football curriculum. “Rise Up! 159 is a game- changer,” said J. Patrick O’Neal, M.D., commis sioner of the Georgia Department of Public Health, which administers Georgia Shape. “Increased physical activity results in fewer disciplinary inci dents, teachers see more instructional time, and students are better pre pared to learn.” Visit www.RiseUpl59. org to learn more about Rise Up! 159.
