Wellness Policy

The Rosemead School District Wellness Policy is designed to foster environments that support the health, well-being, and academic achievement of all students. The policy aligns with federal and state requirements and outlines comprehensive guidelines for nutrition education, physical activity, and school wellness practices. It ensures that all foods and beverages available on campus meet or exceed the USDA Smart Snack standards, that students have access to nutritious, appealing meals, and that schools provide opportunities for daily physical activity and health promotion.

The Wellness Policy also emphasizes the importance of nutrition education across grade levels, integrating wellness principles into the classroom and encouraging family and community engagement in healthy living. The policy is reviewed and updated regularly by the Wellness Policy Committee, a collaborative group of district staff, parents, students, and community members, to ensure it continues to reflect best practices and supports the holistic development of every child.

The Rosemead School District Wellness Policy is a Board-adopted policy that reflects the district’s commitment to promoting student health, well-being, and academic success. As required by the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act and the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, every school district participating in the National School Lunch Program must establish a local school wellness policy approved by its Board of Education.
