Eight Component Coordinated School Health Model
The Durango School District uses the Coordinated School Health model in our schools.
2009 Commissioner’s Choice Award Winner
Best Practices in Health and Wellness
Commissioner of Education Dwight D. Jones recognized 11 school districts and two schools at the second annual Commissioner’s Choice Awards hosted by the Colorado Legacy Foundation. The awards recognize school districts and schools that apply best practices and get results by using a coordinated and comprehensive approach.
Durango School District has one of the most comprehensive and coordinated health and wellness policies in the state of Colorado.
Work began in 2004 with the help of a planning grant from the Colorado Department of Education. The district used the funding to assess its strengths and weaknesses, and then developed a district wide plan that covers wellness, nutrition and physical activity.
Now, each of the district’s 11 schools follows a Coordinated School Health Model. Teams at each school oversee and evaluate the progress of school-based health and wellness plans.
