JEB Wellness Team Mission and Vision

Mission

To encourage a positive lifestyle through a culture of balanced wellness.

Vision

To inspire positive lifestyle choices that support the overall well-being of students and staff to meet emotional, social, physical, and nutritional needs. 

The Laclede Co. C-5 School District Board of Education recognizes the importance of the relationship between student/staff well-being and performance, as well as the importance of a comprehensive district wellness program. Therefore, the district will provide developmentally appropriate and sequential nutrition and physical education as well as opportunities for physical activity. The wellness program will be implemented in a multidisciplinary fashion and will be evidence-based. 

JEB Wellness Committee

The district will establish a wellness committee that consists of staff members, including, but not limited to, the community outreach specialist, school nurse, a physical education teacher, a school food service representative, and an administrator. Parents, community members, the Board of Education, area credentialed nutrition professionals, and student representatives will be invited to participate in the committee as well. 

The district wellness committee will meet a minimum of once per quarter and will be responsible for the development, implementation, and review of the wellness plan. The district wellness committee will name co-chairs each year who will be responsible for ensuring, with the supervision of the superintendent, that the plan is being implemented as stated.
