Section 8000 – Students 8453 Student Wellness Policy (Cf. 4450, 4460) 8453 The [Insert District Name] is committed to creating a healthy school environment that enhances the development of lifelong wellness practices to promote healthy eating and physical activities that support student achievement and hereby adopts this Student Wellness Policy. 33 Nutrition Education Every year, all students, Pre - K-12, shall receive nutrition education that is aligned with the Michigan Health Education Content Standards and Benchmarks. 34 Nutrition education that teaches the knowledge, skills, and values needed to adopt healthy eating behaviors shall be integrated into the curriculum. Nutrition education information shall be offered throughout the school campus including, but not limited to, school dining areas and classrooms. Staff members who provide nutrition education shall have the appropriate training. Nutrition Standards The District shall ensure that reimbursable school meals meet the program requirements and nutrition standards found in federal regulations. 35 The District shall encourage students to make nutritious food choices. The District shall monitor all food and beverages sold or served to students, including those available outside the federally regulated child nutrition programs. The District shall consider nutrient density 36 and portion size before permitting food and beverages to be sold or served to students. The Superintendent shall continually evaluate vending policies and contracts. Vending contracts that do not meet the intent and purpose of this policy shall be modified accordingly or not renewed. 33 MASB Note: This local Student Wellness Policy, was adopted, unanimously, by the Michigan State Board of Education on Monday, October 10, 2005. It is the product of a collaborative effort between the Michigan Department of Education and MASB as reviewed and finalized by a panel of health, nutrition, and physical education specialists from across the State. It is a MODEL, and is not MANDATED, so local districts are free to modify it some based on local needs and circumstances – particularly the administrative rules. We urge, however, that local boards give serious consideration to adoption of the POLICY itself as it is written, and allow, then, the administration to modify the administrative rules to meet local needs and expectations. 34 Michigan Department of Education Health Education Content Standards and Benchmarks, July 1998. http://www.michigan.gov/documents/Health_Standards_15052_7.pdf. 35 Title 7—United States Department of Agriculture, Chapter ii - Food and Nutrition Service, Department of Agriculture, Part 210 - National School Lunch Program. http://www.access.gpo.gov/nara/cfr/waisidx_04/7cfr210_04.html 36 Nutrient dense foods are those that provide substantial amounts of vitamins and minerals and relatively fewer calories. Foods that are low in nutrient density are foods that supply calories but relatively small amounts of micronutrients (sometimes not at all). http://www.health.gov/dietaryguidelines/dga2005/report/HTML/G1_Glossary.htm SCHOOL DISTRICT OF THE CITY OF SAGINAW

Other School-Based Activities Designed to Promote Student-Wellness The District may implement other appropriate programs that help create a school environment that conveys consistent wellness messages and is conducive to healthy eating and physical activity. Implementation and Measurement The Superintendent shall implement this policy and measure how well it is being managed, and enforced.
