Health and Wellness

Under the direction of the Director of Health Services, the District Health and Wellness Committee plans, implements, and supports coordinated school health. The Coordinated School Health Program (CSHP) model, consists of eight interactive components.

The District Health and Wellness Committee is comprised of parent, school, and community members. The committee meets on a quarterly basis to address selected issues. Each year the committee identifies needs, sets priorities and forms working committees to address the CSH goals, and comply with the district Wellness Policy (BP 5030). Every two years, a report is made to the School Board on activities in place to fulfill requirements of the District wellness policy. Current identified needs and CSHP goals include (1) Health Promotion for Staff; (2) School Counseling, Psychological and Social Services (3) Healthy School Environment, and (4) Student Nutrition. 

Extension of the District's efforts to the schools enables site-based decisions regarding how to best implement programs to meet the needs of the local community.
