Health & Wellness, Social Services

Purpose:

  • Promote awareness and adoption of health-promoting lifestyle choices, including regular physical activity, participation in athletics, and engagement in well-designed, research-supported training within physical education programs;
  • Provide educational opportunities that equip students and families with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions and to reduce unhealthy or risky behaviors;
  • Support access to nutritious, well-balanced meals that meet students’ developmental and learning needs and encourage lifelong healthy eating habits; and
  • Collaborate with district staff, families, and community partners to create a school culture that values wellness, inclusion, and sustainable health practices.

Through these efforts, the SHAC Health Subcommittee seeks to foster a safe, supportive, and health-conscious environment in which all students can thrive both in and beyond school.
