The health of our students is important. Research shows students who are healthy are better able to do their best in school. The Center for Family, School, and Community Partnerships provides schools, students and families with training and tools they can use to set up healthy school environments. We encourage our students to take part in research-based physical education activities and walking clubs. We connect community agencies with schools to host nutrition programs and health fairs. We work with community partners to operate school-based health clinics (currently at 3 locations) open to students and their families.
