Health and Wellness at OCPS

Mission

The Primary School’s mission is to create a diverse and inclusive community of learners committed to a challenging and supportive educational experience that will foster the intellectual, moral, emotional, and physical development of each student with its Health and Wellness Program.

Health and Academic Achievement

Health can influence academic achievement. Research supports the important connection between health and learning, showing that health-related barriers limit students’ ability and motivation to learn, and that improving access to healthy foods and physical activities in particular can positively influence the health of students and improve academic achievement. Schools that incorporate student health and wellness as a priority often see positive benefits in various areas.
