Effective school health programs are critical to the academic success, well-being, and long-term health of young people. 🌿 When Leadership Leads to Wellness: Using SHI as a Strategic Tool for Superintendent Decision-Making The well-being of students and staff is foundational to academic success. But how can district leaders move beyond good intentions and use data to make informed decisions that improve school health, culture, and student outcomes? Join this AASA webinar to explore how the School Health Index (SHI) can serve as a strategic decision-making tool for superintendents and district leaders. Learn how wellness data can help identify priorities, strengthen school improvement efforts, and create healthier learning environments where students and educators can thrive. As you participate, consider these questions: How well do we understand the health and wellness needs of our students and staff, and what data are we using to guide our decisions? If wellness is a driver of student achievement, how intentionally are we embedding it into our district's strategic planning and school improvement efforts? What is one barrier to student or staff wellness that, if addressed, could have the greatest positive impact across our schools? Healthy schools don't happen by chance—they are the result of intentional leadership, informed decision-making, and a commitment to creating environments where every student and educator has the opportunity to succeed.
