The health and wellness of our children must be a
top priority. Obesity, diabetes, ADHD, and many other conditions are on the rise and wellness is becoming more of a priority in public education. The best way
to facilitate that awareness early in life is through our educational institutions.
We offer the following services:
-
Curriculum Development- design and implementation of separate programs as
well as integrated curriculum components
-
Staff Development- seminars and workshops to model strategies for integrating
wellness into curriculum and instruction; workshops and group wellness coaching to promote staff wellness
-
Student Activities- after school wellness programs emphasizing nutrition,
fitness, an holistic well-being
-
Parent Training- seminars, workshops, and programs to promote parents' support
of student wellness. (NCLB Parent Involvement funds can be used)
-
Community Programs- health fairs, workshops, and wellness events
The Child
Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 2004 (click here for a summary by the Food Research and Action Center) provided stipulations for the creation of school wellness policies. We specialize in Illinois School Wellness Policy, but the standards of other states can be adopted easily. Let’s build a healthier, happier future for our young
people!
