This project supports collection of heights and weights data measured by school nurses in public schools in four New Jersey cities (Newark, Camden, Trenton, New Brunswick). These data will contribute outcomes to a pilot analysis of the association of changes in the food and physical activity environment with trends in the weight status of children in approximately 120 schools.
