  • Description:
    Data from the 2015 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) show that students with higher academic grades are more likely to engage in healthy dietary behaviors compared to students with lower grades. It is important to remember that these associations do not prove causation. School health professionals, school officials, and other decision makers can use this fact sheet to better understand the associations between healthy dietary behaviors and grades and reinforce policies and practices that support healthy eating in schools.

    For more information, visit the CDC’s Healthy Schools website, or call 800-CDC-INFO (800-232-4636).
