Healthy schools provide welcoming, safe and healthy places to learn and grow. They recognize the role that health and wellness play in building a foundation for student success and closing the achievement gap. A healthy school allows all students to feel supported, engaged and empowered to make choices that support their well-being and school success. Minnesota's new Safe and Supportive Schools Act sets new expectations for healthy schools.
