Take the Y5210 Challenge!
Bristol Tennessee City Schools is excited to announce that we have once again teamed up with the
Bristol Family YMCA to bring you Y5210 At‐School. Y5210 At‐School is part of the YMCA
Activate Bristol program. Through this program, the YMCA works with Bristol community
partners, as well as state and national partners to promote nutrition and physical activity.
The Y5210 challenge is simple:
5 or more servings of fruits and vegetables
2 or fewer hours of recreational screen time
1 hour or more of active play
0 sugary drinks (more water and low fat milk)
As you may already know, students and teachers will be working extra hard this month to prepare
for the Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program (TCAP) tests, which begin March 31. As
students prepare their brains for this challenge, we also want them to discover the importance of
preparing their bodies for the test with the Y5210 challenge.
Each week of March, your child will be focusing on one component of the above challenge. PE
teachers will officially introduce students to the challenge of the week, and students will receive
educational materials to take home. Students who complete each of the challenges and return
the completed checklists to their homeroom teachers will receive a prize each week from the
Bristol Family YMCA.
Prizes include: backpacks, T‐shirts, posters, water bottles, caps, and more.
Students and entire families are invited to take part in the Y5210 challenge for better health!
