Wellness Policy
Our District has developed a Wellness Policy that is focused on improving the health of students. The policy was developed by the health and wellness advisory council that includes teachers, parents, administrators, and the district nurse.
Sharing the Message of Wellness
One of our goals is to share the message of nutrition and wellness via our department's Web site that emphasizes the importance of nutrition AND fitness. Our site provides information on the nutrition and fitness for teachers, parents, and students, as well as, a variety of learning tools.
PUBLIC INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE
We encourage participation on the school or system wellness teams. Express your desire to participate by calling your school office or the School Nutrition office at (706) 657-4361 ext. 10013. The System Wellness Team has periodic meetings, all wellness activities and school goals are reviewed and results will be shared district-wide by various means.
