RAMS PLAYER TALKS HEALTHY NUTRITION WITH COMPTON-DREW STUDENTS

St. Louis Rams Tony Hargrove stopped by to share nutrition tips with students from Compton-Drew Investigative Learning Center on March 16. Hargrove signed autographs, t-shirts and took pictures with students. The event helped bring attention to National Nutrition Month.

ARAMARK provides all meals to SLPS students and has recently changed the menus.
“We are committed to the health and nutrition of our students. As our partner, ARAMARK is ensuring that we meet this commitment head on,” said Dr. Craig E. Williams, superintendent of schools.

Eighth grade students Derrion First and Dave Hall were excited about meeting Hargrove and getting his autograph. “ It feels really great to see a Rams player in person,” said Dave. “I really like how he presented himself to us.”

Hargrove, a graduate of Georgia Tech, is a defensive end and has played for the Rams team for three years.

National Nutrition Month focuses on the importance of making healthy food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits.
