Have you read our Local School Wellness Policy (LSWP)? You can find it on the McKinleyville Union School District website! Student health and wellness is critical to academic performance. The policy includes goals for nutrition promotion and education, physical activity, and other school-based activities that promote student wellness.
The policy is posted under Departments -- Food Services. On the right-hand sidebar you’ll see Wellness Policy/Triennial Assessment. On this page you will find the LSWP Board Policy 5030, as well as, the LSWP Assessment. We encourage parents/guardians and all members of the public to participate in the development, implementation, and periodic review and update of the District's student wellness policy by joining our School Wellness Committee. The committee advises the district on health-related issues, activities, policies, and programs. Contact Food Services Director Carson Brady at (707) 839-5219 for more information about the Wellness Committee and the policy.
The Superintendent designates the site principals as the individuals responsible for ensuring that each school site complies with the district's wellness policy. The Superintendent or designee assesses the implementation and effectiveness of this policy at least once every three years.
This post serves as our annual notification informing and updating the public (parents, students, and others in the community) about the content and implementation of the LSWP.
