School Wellness

Each local educational agency that participates in the National School Lunch Program or other federal Child Nutrition programs is required by federal law to establish a local school wellness policy for all schools under its jurisdiction.

Local School Wellness Policies aim to promote sound nutrition, student health, and provide transparency to the public about the school wellness environment.  

Background
In 2010, Congress passed the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (Sec. 204 of Public Law 111-296), and added new provisions for local school wellness policies related to implementation, evaluation, and publicly reporting on progress of local school wellness policies. 

Join our Wellness Committee!
If you have an interest in student wellness and would like to serve on the Wellness Committee, please contact Sandy Voss, SNS, RDN, Director of Food & Nutrition Services.  Your name will be added to the email list of members and you will be notified of scheduled meetings.

The committee meets multiple times per year on a schedule that is determined annually.
