Information for Teachers and Principals

Here are some tools that you can use to learn more about what makes a school healthy, assess what your school is doing, and do your part to make your school even healthier. Schools are encouraged to let students take the lead and come up with ideas to make their school healthier.

We're also interested in your great ideas. Use our feedback form to tell us what your school is doing.

Work together to ensure that your school provides every student with equal and equitable access to high-quality instruction and programs. Students need a healthy physical environment and a supportive social environment in which to thrive.
