The Schenectady School District recognizes that enhanced  nutrition and physical fitness efforts in schools have been shown to have a positive effect on school attendance, student  behavior, academic performance and overall health and well being.  The Wellness Policy of the Schenectady City School District is designed to strengthen and further promote an  institutional culture of wellness among students, staff, and the entire school community.  The SCSD Wellness Policy is intended to be the document used by the individual schools as they strive to incorporate a wellness culture within their buildings.  It should be viewed as a tool to support the schools as they model the positive nutrition and fitness behaviors that are necessary to fight the rising rates of obesity and its associated health risks.  As a living document, it will be updated as necessary and approved by the Board of Education annually.
