School Wellness Commitees

We have this here. The chair is our Elem. secretary. I am on the committee as well as the PE coach, the principal, the school board president, our nutritionist, our meal director, one student, and a parent.

We just discuss what has happened in district and new clinics, or meal options we may be offering. We meet once a quarter. Nothing to big. Our chair is also over our Myinteria accounts.

We have a district-wide wellness committee (we also have the grant...); All of the nurses are on the committee, along with the health educator in the middle/high school. Technically, the superintendent is also a member, though he has not come to a meeting (surprise, surprise).

We have it, but it seems to be mostly nutrition requirements in our meetings, PE stuff, nothing that really pertains to nursing. Oh, and it also has requirements for selling food on campus (concessions or even laws pertaining to food-based fundraising). I feel like appointing all the district nurses was unnecessary and passing the buck. It seemed like an administrator for each campus needed to be there. I rarely have coverage to actually make it to the meetings.

We have a district wellness committee that more focuses on staff wellness. They plan a monthly after school activity that focuses on physical and mental health (like walks, painting parties, social gatherings) and sponsor monthly challenges. I was a part of it the last few years, but we were told that we cannot use our early dismissal meeting time to meet and had to meet over the summer. With me not being available over the summer, I kinda got the boot ?

We have one; it covers all the schools (four) in our corporation. It's chaired by one of the principals. I am on it, as well as a teacher from each of the schools, a school board member, head dietitian, and a high school student. We cover activities and nutrition ideas for both students and staff i.e. opened our buildings for staff to come in and walk, sponsor a walk/ride to school day, things like that.
