District Intended Wellness Outcomes:
Increase the number of wellness strategies implemented district-wide by 2%.
School Wellness Goal:
Conestoga Elementary will provide support for students in making healthy lifestyle choices by implementing systems to aid in decreasing the average Body Mass Index score on annual screenings. During the 2019-2020 school year, there will be a 5% decrease in the number of at-risk students (BMI 85%-94%) as well as high risk students (BMI 95% or greater) from the 2018 – 2019 school year as evaluated by the annual Health Appraisal screenings performed by the school nurse.
Strategy (add AQUESTT Tenets/AdvancEd after each strategy):
§ Conestoga will create, communicate and implement activities focused on improving the overall Nutrition and Physical Fitness environment (Educational Opportunities and Access; Educator Effectiveness)
§ Grab and Go Breakfast
§ Healthy snacks for school celebrations
§ Monthly Wellness activities for staff
§ Lunch recess increased by 5 minutes for all students
§ Walking track available for students, staff and Community
§ School community participates in the National Walk at Lunch program in April
§ Behavior celebrations include a physical component in place of food items (dance, skating, bounce houses, etc)
§ BMI monitoring by the nurse – results sent home to parents/referral to a medical doctor if BMI is high
§ Vision care, glasses provided for students in need and hearing screenings
§ Dental screening, teledentistry, and Creighton Dental Services (sealants, fluoride and screenings) – referral to dentist if needed
§ Human growth and Development classes taught to students in grades 4 – 6 by the school nurse
Monitoring Progress: (Documentation should be kept in the Wellness Binder)
§ Agendas, sign in sheets, and meeting minutes from school wellness committee meetings
§ Wellness Activity Documentation (e.g., number of staff members who participated in a staff meeting in discussion of a wellness topic.)
· Ensure consistent implementation of success criteria
· Communicate wellness activities at grade level and staff meetings
