Wellness Policy

The Lauderdale County Board of Education is committed to providing a healthy and safe environment for students and staff. We understand and believe that children who are healthy and learn to make healthy choices are better suited to learn more and are more likely to complete their formal education, including graduating from high school.

Enhancing student learning by providing a curriculum, policies, and procedures that model proper nutrition and physical education. Academic performance and quality of life are affected by the choice and availability of healthy foods in schools. Healthy foods support physical growth, brain development, resistance to disease, emotional stability, and the ability to learn. Good health habits learned in school sets a more healthy pattern for life-long habits and livelihood.
