We believe wellness, among staff and students, is
achieved individually by making wise choices every day. Therefore, the
District shall provide education and services designed to promote healthy
choices and practices relative to nutrition, physical fitness, and lifelong
wellness.
Our goal is for each person to take responsibility for
his or her own health. A key indicator of the effectiveness of our educational
programs in Health, Nutrition, and Physical Education is the extent to which
staff and students adopt personal practices that apply what is learned. Relevant
data shall be collected and analyzed relative to the results of fitness and
wellness practices.
Family and Community Outreach
The district will utilize outreach strategies to encourage families and
community stakeholders to reinforce and support health and well being; including,
but not limited to, healthy eating and physical activity for students and
adults.
Coordination
Coordination of Student and Staff Wellness activities, including operational
responsibility for ensuring that wellness and wellness related policies are
implemented, and for establishing a plan for measuring the effectiveness of the
policy, shall be the
responsibility of the Superintendent or designee.
