<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Local Wellness Policies are an important vehicle for enhancing and sustaining school wellness efforts! This is a great opportunity for public health to work with
local educational agencies to make a difference in school, community and worksite wellness.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Now is the time to work with district wellness committees and school boards to revise, advance, and adopt local school wellness policies!</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">
Each local educational agency that participates in the National School Lunch Program or other federal Child Nutrition programs is required by federal law to establish a local school wellness policy for all schools under its jurisdiction. Last July, local wellness
policy requirements were strengthened by the wellness policy final rule, part of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. The final rule requires
</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">standards and nutrition guidelines for all foods sold and provided at school (including fundraising, snacks, classroom celebrations, and rewards); provides policies for marketing and promoting food in schools
(if you can’t sell it, you can’t promote it); and strengthens wellness policy leadership, accountability, and transparency.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><b><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">School boards are required to adopt the new wellness policies by June 30, 2017, and begin implementing the policies during the 2017-2018 school year.
</span></b><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"> The Oregon School Board Association (OSBA) has created sample wellness policies and sample administrative regulations (ARs). ARs are optional for districts but are recommended. OSBA has created a
helpful handbook (see forwarded email below) to provide school boards with resources for adopting and implementing local wellness policies. Oregon’s sample policy also includes an optional school employee wellness policy component! This is the time to work
with district wellness committees and school boards to ensure the adoption of sound wellness policies.
