FCPS 2021-2024 Triennial Wellness Assessment

FCPS encourages a culture of improved health and wellness throughout the division.

Wellness Reporting Process

  • Local Education Agencies (LEAs) complete a Triennial Assessment of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations: Local School Wellness Policy (7 CFR § 210.31).
  • Each LEA participating in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and/or the School Breakfast Program (SBP) must develop a written plan that includes methods to
    • promote student wellness,
    • prevent childhood obesity, and
    • provide assurance that school meals and other food and beverages sold are consistent with federal standards.
  • At least once every three years, LEAs assess each school’s compliance with the local school wellness policy and update the policy if needed.

2021-24 FCPS Triennial Wellness Assessment

As part of the Triennial Wellness Assessment, FCPS ensures that each participating school complies with the local school wellness policy and assesses each school’s compliance.

2023-24 School Wellness Survey Responses and Summary Report 

Each school in FCPS is required to report progress toward the implementation of the wellness policy. The intent of reporting, as required by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act (HHFKA) of 2010, is to support schools in establishing and maintaining healthy school environments, and provide transparency to the public. 

Initial wellness reporting was implemented in FCPS during SY 2017-2018. Wellness survey responses were scored using a 1-5 scale (see Definition of Scale Rating below) and schools were also provided the opportunity to share open-ended feedback. 

Wellness survey ratings indicate the degree to which each school is implementing wellness practices, which are likely to lead to more positive health and wellness outcomes for FCPS students, families, and staff.
