OACSD Wellness Policy

Updated 2.3.16 Page 1

WELLNESS POLICY Our District culture will support and reinforce the health and wellbeing of each student and staff member. Our District will set realistic goals for student and staff health that are built on accurate data and sound science.

*Regular physical activity can improve the health and quality of life of people of all ages (HealthyPeople.gov, n.d.); however, only 17 percent of high school students currently meet the recommended daily amount (Eaton et al., 2010).

* Over the past three decades, childhood obesity rates in the United States have tripled. Today nearly one third of U.S. children are overweight (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2008), and almost 17 percent of children and adolescents are obese (Ogden, Carroll, Kit, & Flegal, 2012). * Improved health can also improve attendance at school. Higher rates of absenteeism have been reported for those students who are overweight; suffer from asthma; or have poor health status, diet, or lack of sleep. Studies have also shown that health-related absenteeism can be reversed by increasing access to services and increasing physical activity. (Basch, 2010) * Neuroscience illuminates the effects of nutrition and physical activity on learning. The brain is malleable when responding to biological and environmental factors, which proves an important attribute for learning. Research indicates the quality of foods children eat impacts cognition — with poor nutrition linked with absenteeism, hunger symptoms and psychosocial problems. Brain-imaging studies show that the brains of aerobically fit children may exhibit superior executive-function control. Physical activity, regardless of whether it’s during recess, in the classroom or in physical education class, may improve school performance and achievement.

The Owego Apalachin Central School District Board of Education recognizes that the wellness of students plays a crucial role in their ability to learn. The Board understands that wellness encompasses a broad range of program areas; nutrition education, physical activity and physical education, health education, medical care, and psychosocial health, among others. The Board of Education believes that it has a responsibility to provide students with the skills, knowledge and support they need to establish healthy behaviors that may serve them well for the rest of their lives. The Board of Education recognizes its responsibility to foster citizenship through education, and in this context accepts its responsibility to help reduce overall healthcare costs and the risk of preventable diseases. The District envisions every school day as one where each student enters school healthy and learns about practicing a healthy lifestyle. The District and the Local Food Agency is committed to providing a school environment that promotes and protects children's health, well-being, and the ability to learn by fostering healthy eating and physical activity. The District has established a wellness team to develop the District's proposed local wellness policy, making such policy recommendations for review and adoption by the Board of Education. The District's wellness team includes, but is not limited to, representatives from each of the following groups:



I. District Wellness Team

The Wellness Team is established to represent the local community's perspective in developing the wellness policy for the District.

II. Foods and Beverages Available in School

Our District supports, promotes, and reinforces healthy eating patterns and food safety in routine food services and special programming and events for staff and students.

The Owego Apalachin Central School District Board recognizes that a nutritious, well-balanced, reasonably- portioned diet is essential for student wellness. To help students possess the knowledge and skills necessary to make nutritious food choices for a lifetime, the district shall ensure that all foods and beverages available in school promote good nutrition balance. The district shall ensure that reimbursable school meals meet or exceed the program requirements, portion size, and nutrition standards found in federal regulations. The district shall encourage professional development in the area of food and nutrition provided for food service managers and staff.



To accomplish this, the Board directs that the district food services serve healthy and appealing foods and beverages at district schools, following current state and federal nutrition guidelines (see reference section at end of Policy), as well as safe food preparation methods. These guidelines are expected to enhance the diet and health of our students and help mitigate the childhood obesity trend.

School Meals • The district will make every effort to offer school breakfast to every student in every school • Encourage the consumption of and choice of nutrient-dense foods; fresh fruits, vegetables,

whole grains, and low fat items. • Encourage students to try new or unfamiliar items though providing the opportunity to have

input on local, cultural, and ethnic favorites • Make efforts to ensure that families are aware of need-based programs for free or reduced-

price meals encourage eligible families to apply, and district will utilize Community Eligibility/ Direct Certification.

• Schools are encouraged to make available locally grown produce and agriculture products to students for school meals and food items sold outside the reimbursable meal program

• Access to free, fresh and safe drinking water throughout the school day and at locations where meals are served.

Meal Scheduling

Students and staff will have adequate space to eat meals in clean, safe, pleasant surroundings and will have adequate time. It is recommended that full day students are permitted a daily lunch period. The district recommends that all students have at least 10 minutes to eat after sitting down for breakfast and 20 minutes after sitting down for lunch.

Foods and Beverages sold individually during the school day (a la carte and vending) must be:

• “whole grain rich” grain product; or • have as the first ingredient a fruit, a vegetable, a dairy product, or a protein food; or. • be a combination food that contains at least ¼ cup of fruit and / or vegetable; or • Contain 10% of the Daily Value of one of the nutrients of public concern in the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (calcium, potassium, vitamin D, or dietary fiber) • foods and beverages must meet the mandated nutritional requirements as outlined in the USDA “All Foods Sold in Schools” standards. • school stores are prohibited from selling food and beverages during school hours

Fund Raising Activities Will strive to promote healthy food items, non-food items, or activities / events (physical or otherwise).

Celebrations and Rewards

• will focus on activities, rather than food • Model the healthy use of nutrient dense food as a natural part of celebrations



III. Physical Activity Our district’s physical activity opportunities and physical education schedule, curriculum and instruction will support and reinforce the health and wellbeing of each student by addressing lifetime fitness knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and skills. Physical activity is an important factor in staying healthy and being ready to learn. The Board of Education encourages every student to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to perform a variety of physical activities, to regularly participate in physical activity, and to appreciate and enjoy physical activity as an ongoing part of a healthy lifestyle. In addition, staff, families, and community are encouraged to participate in and model physical activity as a valuable part of daily life. The district’s Physical Education program shall adhere to the curricular requirements of the Commissioner of Education and the New York State Learning Standards. Physical Education

Student involvement in other activities beyond Physical Education classes involving physical activity (e.g., interscholastic or intramural sports) will not be substituted for meeting the physical education requirement. Students will spend at least 50 percent of physical education class time participating in moderate to vigorous physical activity.

• Physical Education classes will meet the appropriate NYS Learning Standards. • PE classes will promote, teach and provide opportunities to practice activities that students enjoy and can pursue throughout their lives (e.g., yoga, fitness walking, step aerobics). • Physical activity shall not be used or withheld as a form of discipline or punishment.

Recess and Transitional Time • All elementary school students will have at least 20 minutes a day of supervised

recess, preferably outdoor, during which students are encouraged (verbally and through the provision of space and equipment) to engage in moderate to vigorous physical activity.

• When feasible, recess will occur prior to lunch to ensure appropriate healthful food and beverage intake.

• Extended periods of inactivity, two hours or more, are discouraged. When activities, such as mandatory school-wide testing, make it necessary for students to remain indoors for long periods of time, students will be given periodic breaks during which they are encouraged to stand and be moderately active.

• When appropriate, physical activity should be encouraged during transition, break, and free time.

Physical Activity in the Classroom

• Promote the integration of skill and age appropriate physical activities, in collaboration with the Physical Education staff, in the classroom when appropriate.

Extracurricular Opportunities for Physical Activity

• Promote clubs and activities that meet the various physical activity needs, interests, and abilities of all students (e.g., walking, hiking and climbing, snowshoeing). Enrichment activities will, when feasible, include physical activity

IV. Nutrition Education and Wellness Promotion

Our district will integrate health and wellbeing into the schools’ ongoing activities, professional development, curriculum, and assessment practices.

Our district health education curriculum and instruction support and reinforce the health and wellbeing of each student by addressing the physical, mental, emotional, and social dimensions of health.

The Board believes that nutrition promotion and education is a key component in introducing and reinforcing healthy behaviors in students. Nutrition promotion and education that teaches the knowledge, skills, and values needed to adopt healthy eating behaviors shall be integrated into the curriculum. Nutrition promotion and education information shall be offered throughout the school campus including, but not limited to, school dining areas and classrooms. Staff members who provide nutrition promotion and education shall be appropriately certified and trained. The district’s broader Health Education program shall Achieve New York State Learning Standards. All staff are encouraged to model healthy eating and physical activity as valuable part of daily life. Examples could be:

• Integrate nutrition education as part of not only Health education and Family and Consumer Sciences classes, but also classroom instruction. • Include enjoyable, developmentally appropriate, culturally relevant, participatory activities, such as contests, promotions, taste testing, farm visits, and school gardens and use of the cafeteria as a learning lab. • Promote and label healthy food items such as fruits, vegetables, whole grain products, low fat dairy products, so students know which optimum choice is.
