Students do better in school when they eat well and are physically active, but their neighborhoods don't always help them do those things.
That's why I AM HERE, Kansas City's new photo contest for schools, is asking students to share what they experience in their own neighborhoods every day, whether it's walking trails or broken sidewalks, cheerful parks or vacant lots, school gardens or fast food restaurants.
Third- through eighth-graders throughout the Kansas City region are encouraged to participate.
