We are excited to collaborate with the Belchertown Public School (BPS) district to assess physical activity in students and schools! Briefly, we aim to share resources and efforts to 1) develop a revised wellness policy proposal for BPS that is reflective of recent state curriculum framework updates and aligned with the BPS district’s health promotion goals and values, and 2) initiate the first stages in the development of a Comprehensive School Physical Activity Program for the BPS district. The information gained from these assessments, along with assessments from BPS students and caregivers, and other informative planning steps will be used to determine the next steps and program goals.
