Notes de l'éditeur
To be effective, coordinated school health programs must be directed toward the needs of students, responsive to the needs of families, and reflective of the values of the local community. All eight components must be linked to each other and supportive of each other. Often, schools with effective coordinated school health programs develop a council of representatives from each area- a coordinated school health team. The team meets to develop school health priorities and programs to address student needs. Many school districts employ a coordinator who works to optimize the connections between the eight separate areas A Systematic Approach: - Assess needs & resources - Prioritize - Plan - Implement - Monitor, evaluate, & refine
