William Tennent High School Students Studying And Biking
The Centennial School District obtained two FlexiSpot Workstation Bikes through a grant for the high school library.
Dino Ciliberti, Patch Staff
WARMINSTER, PA —If you're going to study, why not exercise as well? A grant from the Centennial Education Foundation allows for just that.
The William Tennent High School Library recently added two machines to offer students the ability to move while moving forward in their studies, school officials said.
Students can change resistance, monitor the distance they've pedaled and see how many calories they've burned. For students who need to move, the bikes can be beneficial in assisting with focus, school officials said.
