Wellness Policy
Livingston Parish Public Schools enacted a local wellness policy in accordance with state and federal laws. As required by the Louisiana Legislature, the District annually appoints a School Health Advisory Council (SHAC) comprised of representatives from each of its 43 schools.
To further our commitment to student wellness, routine assessments are conducted to review policy compliance, assess progress, and determine areas in need of improvement. As part of that review, the School Board and staff shall review all nutrition and physical activity policies to ensure an environment that supports healthy eating and physical activity. In addition, nutrition and physical education policies, as well as, program elements will be assessed using the Louisiana Department of Education Wellness Policy Evaluation tool. Assessment results will be shared with SHAC members.
The School Board and individual schools within the District shall, as necessary, revise the wellness policies and develop work plans to facilitate their implementations.
