Creating Lasting Impact

Data shows that in California, there was a 20.4% chronic absenteeism rate during the 2023/2024 school year. Our program is deeply rooted in proven educational strategies. Incorporating Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) within physical education has been shown to create positive classroom climates, deepen students’ understanding of core concepts, and increase retention of information. When students engage in physical activities, they experience not only physical benefits but also crucial mental health improvements, aiding in better focus and learning post-exercise.

By addressing chronic absenteeism and its underlying causes, Feet First Foundation is committed to making a lasting impact on the future of education and student well-being.
