What Is a Coordinated School Health Program (CSHP)? |
|
Health is not just the absence of disease – it is complete
physical, mental, and social well-being. A school health program that effectively
addresses students’ health, and thus improves their ability to learn, consists of
many different components. Each component makes a unique contribution while also
complementing the others, ultimately creating a whole that is more than just the
sum of its parts. CSHPs traditionally include eight components:
1. Family and community involvement in school health
Partnerships among schools, families, community groups, and individuals. Designed to maximize resources and expertise in addressing the healthy development of children, youth, and their families.
2. Comprehensive school health education
|
Classroom instruction that addresses the physical, mental, emotional, and social dimensions of health; promotes knowledge, attitudes, and skills; and is tailored to each age/developmental level. Designed to motivate and assist students in maintaining and improving their health and to reduce their risk behaviors.
3. Physical education
Planned, sequential instruction that promotes lifelong physical activity. Designed to develop basic movement skills, sports skills, and physical fitness as well as to enhance mental, social, and emotional abilities.
4. School health services
Preventive services, education, emergency care, referral, and management of acute and chronic health conditions. Designed to promote the health of students, identify and prevent health problems and injuries, and ensure appropriate care for students.
5. School nutrition services
Integration of nutritious, affordable, and appealing meals; nutrition education; and an environment that promotes healthy eating habits for all children. Designed to maximize each child’s education and health potential for a lifetime.
6. Counseling, psychological, and social services
Activities that focus on cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and social needs of individuals, groups, and families. Designed to prevent and address problems, facilitate positive learning and healthy behavior, and enhance healthy development.
7. Healthy school environment
The physical, emotional, and social climate of the school. Designed to provide both a safe physical plant and a healthy and supportive environment that fosters learning.
8. Health promotion for school personnel
Assessment, education, and fitness activities for school faculty and staff. Designed to maintain and improve the health and well-being of school staff who serve as role models for the students.
These components encompass a school's instruction, services, and physical and social environments. Leadership, partnerships, and coordination serve as the "glue" that holds the different pieces together to form a coherent whole. Because individuals, institutions, needs, and resources differ from community to community, no two CSHPs are expected to look exactly alike. Each new setting will bring together a unique group of people and agencies to determine the specific needs facing young people in their schools and build on the many resources that are already in place to support positive youth development
