JUST FOR YOU!
The Neenah Joint School District values your wellbeing and provides many services and programs for its staff. Check out the ways in which we bring health and wellness to YOU!
NJSD FITNESS ROOMS
Free-access fitness facilities
Neenah High School, Horace Mann Middle School, and Shattuck Middle School have fitness facilities that are free and available to staff members at any time. Email Angela Zanto for fob access to the buildings and the NHS fitness room. Contact building custodians at the middle schools for key access to the fitness rooms.
FITNESS VIDEOS
Fitting exercise into your day
You don't need hours in a day to devote to physical activity. We are all busy and may only have a quick 10 or 15-minute break to be active. Aside from walking the halls, you also could do a quick video. Follow the link for short and longer videos to use depending on the time you have. It's not about FINDING time, it's about MAKING time and making movement a priority. NJSD staff now have access to the YMCA online fitness library as well. Check it all out by clicking the link below.
MINDFULNESS
Take time for self-care
"Mindfulness is being aware of yourself, others, and your surroundings in the moment. When consciously and kindly focusing awareness on life as it unfolds minute by precious minute, you are better able to savor each experience. Also, being closely attentive gives you the opportunity to change unwise or painful feelings and responses quickly. In fact, being truly present in a mindful way is an excellent stress reducer and, because of that, can be seen as consciousness conditioning, a strengthening workout for body, mind, heart, and spirit"-Sue Thoele
RECIPES
Try these easy, healthy recipes!
We are what we eat, and we want to be healthy, strong individuals. I know it can be overwhelming to think of healthy ways to feed our families, especially those picky eaters, but try these family-friendly recipes, which are sure to please. Healthy living starts at home. Try having your son/daughter/loved one help you in the kitchen and make some memories!
WELLNESS CLASSES
Bringing Fitness to You
Together with instructors and organizations within the community, we provide classes and programs designed for every fitness level for every body. We understand how full your day can be, and we acknowledge the struggle to find time for personal fitness. With that in mind, we have structured our programs around YOU and your day to provide ample opportunity for wellness.
PROFESSIONAL LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT:

Health Begins Here
Professional Learning and Development days have a built-in wellness component as a reflection of the support provided by the administration.

At FIRE Fitness Camp, we have taken the FAILURE OUT OF FITNESS by offering professionally coached training sessions by top-tier motivators. FIRE can involve supersets, circuits, speed, resistance, and compound movements. The "functional" side of FIRE represents training the body for activities performed in daily life. Not to mention our incredibly successful approach to burning the most amount of calories during our 30 MINUTE SESSIONS by using short rest periods and intense resistance, which may come in the form of ropes, weights, bands, sleds, your own body weight, etc. The short rest periods also contribute to spiking your metabolism, which ultimately leads to FAST results.
NJSD Staff can receive 20% off by showing their staff badge.
