AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
A joint resolution passed by the Legislature and signed by the Governor carries no force of law — it expresses the Legislature's position and sends a formal message. This resolution encourages Utah public schools to provide at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity for every K–12 student, through physical education, recess, classroom movement, or extracurricular activities, and encourages public elementary schools, including charter schools, to take an annual field trip to either a working farm or a whole-food restaurant to teach students about food production, nutrition, and healthy eating. The resolution emphasizes local flexibility, leaving it to individual school districts and charter schools to decide how best to implement these recommendations, and directs that a copy be sent to the State Board of Education and every local school district.
