This document, referred to as the “wellness plan” (the plan), is in-

tended to implement policy FFA(LOCAL), which has been adopted

by the Board to comply with the requirements for a school well-

ness policy. [Section 9A(a) of the National School Lunch Act

(NSLA), 42 U.S.C. 1758b; 7 C.F.R. Part 210]

Federal law requires that certain stakeholders be involved in the

development, implementation, and periodic review and update of

the wellness policy. The District has chosen to use the local

school health advisory council (SHAC) to work on behalf of the

District to review and consider evidence-based strategies and

techniques in order to develop and implement nutrition guidelines

and wellness goals as required by federal law. The SHAC will

permit the following persons to work with the SHAC on the Dis-

trict’s wellness policy and plan: parents, students, the District’s

food service provider, physical education teachers, school health

professionals, Board members, administrators, and members of

the public. The SHAC will solicit involvement and input of these

other interested persons by:

1. Posting on District website SHAC date and time of meeting

at which the Wellness Policy and Plan are scheduled to be

discussed.

2. Sharing the proposed plan with the stake holders during the

SHAC meeting for discussion.

Each campus principal is responsible for the implementation of

FFA (LOCAL) and this wellness plan at his or her campus, includ-

ing the submission of necessary information to the SHAC for eval-

uation.

The Assistant Superintendent is the District official responsible for

the overall implementation of FFA (LOCAL), including the devel-

opment of this wellness plan and any other appropriate adminis-

measure and make available to the public the results of an as-

sessment of the implementation of the District’s wellness policy,

the extent to which each campus is compliant with the wellness

policy, a description of the progress made in attaining the goals of

the wellness policy, and the extent to which the wellness policy

compares with any state- or federally designated model wellness

policies. This will be referred to as the “triennial assessment.”

The following provisions describe the District’s nutrition guidelines

and activities and objectives chosen by the SHAC to implement

the Board-adopted wellness goals in policy FFA(LOCAL).

All District campuses participate in the U.S. Department of Agricul-

ture’s (USDA’s) child nutrition programs, including the National

School Lunch Program (NSLP) and the School Breakfast Program

(SBP). Federal law requires that the District establish nutrition

guidelines for foods and beverages sold to students during the

school day on each campus that promote student health and re-

duce childhood obesity.

The District’s nutrition guidelines are to ensure all foods and bev-

erages sold or marketed to students during the school day adhere

to all federal regulations and guidance and are designed to pro-

mote student health and reduce childhood obesity.

The District will comply with federal requirements for reimbursable

meals. For other foods and beverages sold to students during the

school day, the District will comply with the federal requirements

for competitive foods. Competitive foods and beverages are not

part of the regular meal programs and occur through sales such

as a la carte options or vending machines. For purposes of this

plan, these requirements will be referred to as “Smart Snacks”

standards or requirements. The following websites have infor-

mation regarding meal and Smart Snacks requirements:

http://www.squaremeals.org/Publications/Handbooks.aspx

(see the Complete Administrator Reference Manual [ARM],

Section 20, Competitive Foods)

The District has also incorporated the following stricter standards

that are not prohibited by federal or state law:

Sale of carbonated beverages and diet soda are prohibited in

the cafeteria.

Preparation of deep fat frying food is prohibited.

State rules adopted by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA)

allow an exemption to the Smart Snacks requirements for up to six

The District will not allow exempted fundraisers; all fundraisers will

include nonfood items, foods that meet the Smart Snacks stand-

ards, or foods that are not intended to be consumed at school.

There are no federal or state restrictions for foods or beverages

provided, but not sold, to students during the school day. Howev-

er, each school district must set its own standards. The District

will comply with state law, which allows a parent or grandparent to

provide a food product of his or her choice to classmates of the

person’s child or grandchild on the occasion of the student’s birth-

day or to children at a school-designated function. [See CO (LE-

GAL)]

The District will measure compliance with the nutrition guidelines

by reviewing meal reimbursement submissions from the child nu-

trition department to the TDA, reviewing foods and beverages that

are sold in competition with the regular school meals, reviewing

items sold as part of approved District fundraisers, and monitoring

the types of foods and beverages made available to students dur-

ing the school day.

Federal law requires that the District establish goals for nutrition

promotion in its wellness policy. The District’s nutrition promotion

activities will encourage participation in the National School Lunch

Program, the School Breakfast Program, and any supplemental

food and nutrition programs offered by the District.
