RISE Schools Wellness Policy
At The RISE Grammar and Prep Schools, we are deeply concerned about the rising rate of childhood obesity in the United States. As part of our mission, we are dedicated to promoting wellness within and outside of the classrooms. With grades K through 8, our schools provide a safe and healthy environment, maintaining a campus that is free from tobacco, alcohol, and drugs. We foster a culture of caring, respect, and responsibility.
To address the various dimensions of health, we have implemented a planned and sequential curriculum at The RISE Grammar and Prep Schools. This curriculum encompasses the physical, mental, emotional, and social aspects of well-being and is aligned with Georgia’s Health and Physical Education frameworks, as well as our existing school policies. As part of our commitment to holistic health, our physical education department incorporates nutritional education standards into their curriculum.
Together, we strive to equip our students with the knowledge and skills needed to make healthy choices and lead balanced lives. At The RISE Grammar and Prep Schools, we are dedicated to creating a nurturing and supportive environment that empowers our students to prioritize their well-being.
