Mission:
The mission of the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model is to provide a comprehensive approach to school health that strives to improve our students' knowledge and behavior about health, as well as their capacity to learn through the collaborative support of families, communities and schools. This program is overseen by a School Health Advisory Council and supported by the RSU #22 Wellness Team. Both groups report to the School Board throughout the calendar year.
