The Southeast Public Health Healthy Schools Team

Our Healthy Schools Team partners with school communities to support student well-being at home and at school. Through a Comprehensive School Health approach, we work alongside school partners to strengthen health-promoting policies, practices, and environments.

Each family of schools is supported by a dedicated public health nurse who provides consultation, evidence-informed guidance and strategic support.

Our work with schools may include:

  • Sharing and interpreting health data to inform school goals and action planning.
  • Proving guidance to support health-related policies and practices.
  • Supporting curriculum planning with evidence-informed resources.
  • Offering consultation and professional learning opportunities to foster a healthy school environment.
  • Sharing reliable health information to strengthen school-home connections.
  • Engaging students and supporting whole-school initiatives that promote well-being and a positive school climate.
  • Facilitating connections between the school community, public health resources and community partner services.
