SCHOOL HEALTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE:

The SHAC committee is comprised of appointed administrators, teachers, paraprofessionals, school nurses, parents, students, and community people.  If anyone is interested in serving on the SHAC committee, please contact Lola Jones. The committee meets quarterly to promote and collaborate ideas for maintaining and educating the importance of health and wellness for the district.  Each campus has different activities for the students and staff. 

Through our Wellness Policy, LISD plays an important role in communicating the connection between health and learning.  We believe this connection reinforces the health knowledge and skills children need to be healthy for a lifetime.   Each spring an assessment of the activities will be available and we encourage your participation in helping us build a “ healthier and stronger future” for our students and staff.
