Celeste Barretto, Teacher Erick Huerta
– KIPP Elementary
“Since joining the Fly Movement
program, my classroom has been more
eager to go outside and do more
physical activities. Even I have become
more active in physical exercises due
to the program. I am also discovering
that it is bringing my students’
families closer. I have parents joining
their children in bike rides, jogs and
other physical activities.”
