Coordinated school health overview
1.
2.
3. Each school in Tennessee must have a Healthy
School Team
Leadership and membership of the HST is decided
on the school level
If possible, the team should consist of
representatives from each of the eight modules of
the CSH model: health/wellness/physical
education teacher (s), school counselor, cafeteria
manger, school nurse, parent, community partner,
administrator, etc.
The Healthy School Team should meet at least four
times a year (some projects may require more
meetings.)
4. Assess and identify student, family, staff and
community needs
Create HST goals and action steps for the school
year that address the identified needs of the
school
Utilize and build on existing programs and services
to accomplish goals
Identify existing and potential funding for initiatives
Monitor implementation of HST initiatives
Communicate HST goals, action plans, events and
progress to students, family, staff and community.
5. Primary contact with MNPS Office of CSH
Plan HST meetings
Review HST membership and maintain
recommended representation
Facilitate implementation and integration of
CSH
Submit Mid-Year Report, HST Member List and
Final Report to the Office of CSH
Delegate responsibilities
6. Physical activity can help schools meet their
educational goals!
Implementing strategies that help students stay
healthy through eating healthy foods and
being physically active can result in:
› Decreased rates of student absenteeism
› Fewer behavioral problems
› Higher school-wide test scores and grades
See “Health & Academic Achievement”
attachment for more information
7. According to Section 1 Tennessee Code
Annotated, Title 49, Chapter 6, it is mandated that
each LEA integrates a minimum of ninety (90)
minutes of physical activity per week into the
instructional school day for every student.
Additionally, an amendment effective July 1, 2014
states “walking to and from class shall not be
considered physical activity for the purposes of this
section.”
It is the responsibility of the principal at each school
to ensure their school is in compliance with this law
and to submit the PAPE Report.
8. The PAPE Report lets the State Department of Education
know how each school is implementing the 90 minute
physical activity requirement
The report should be submitted quarterly. The report is
now submitted via an online survey. You will receive an
email each quarter with a link to the current survey.
The due dates for each quarter are as follows:
› Quarter 1: Aug 29, 2014
› Quarter 2: Nov 21, 2014
› Quarter 3: Jan 16, 2015
› Quarter 4: Apr 15, 2015
9. Fitness testing is performed in Physical Education
class in elementary and middle schools and in
Lifetime Wellness class in high schools. This testing
is required for all schools in Tennessee.
Body Mass Index (BMI)
› Grades K, 2, 4, 6, 8 and Lifetime Wellness
› Height & Weight
Aerobic Capacity
› Grades 4, 6, 8 and Lifetime Wellness
› 20-Meter PACER Test
10. Passive Permission
› Parents provide consent for height and weight
screenings by completing and returning the
Signature Page on Page 1 of the MNPS Student-
Parent Handbook
› If the parent checks “No”, teachers should not
collect height or weight measurements for that
child
› If the parent checks “Yes” or if the form is never
returned to the school, teachers should collect
height and weight measurements for that child
11.
12. Coordinated School Health collects BMI data to
monitor childhood obesity trends in individual
schools, MNPS, and Tennessee
These results are used as evidence that we need
resources and funding to provide programs to help
make our schools and the Nashville community
healthier for our students
Data can be used on the school and district level
to form community partnerships and write grants to
fund healthy programs and initiatives in MNPS
