Dr. Lineberry's School Wins $100000 Fitness Center Award Letter

It is certainly worth mention that Stanfield Elementary School is a Title I school, over 98% of students live below the poverty level and all students receive free lunch and breakfast.   According to 2010 census data, the average annual income for the town of Stanfield was $5000, you read that right, $5000.   We are a community of Native American students (20%), Hispanic students (75%) and 5% of everything else.  We are a migrant and purely agricultural community.  We have a school garden that yielded 100's of pounds of vegetables, melons, and fruit for our community.  Stanfield is the only school in Arizona to ever win the Gold with Distinction Award from the USDA's HUSSCC program, a program that has been around since 2004 and an award that in that 12 year period has only been given out to 250 schools.   At Core Purpose Consulting we are extremely proud of Dr. Lineberry and his school for this achievement and hope to help other schools both in Arizona and on a national scale achieve similar recognition.
