The National Recognition Award

Loading...

The Healthy Schools Program National Recognition Award is an honor given nationally to showcase and acknowledge schools that have implemented changes in order to create healthier school environments.  To earn an award, schools must meet best practice criteria established by the Healthy Schools Program Expert Panel and outlined in the Healthy Schools Program Framework.

Developing a healthy school environment takes time and persistence. As such, the Healthy Schools Program’s award is granted at four levels of achievement: bronze, silver, gold, and platinum.

Any school that enrolls in the Healthy Schools Builder® and completes the Builder inventory can apply for the National Recognition Award. As schools work through the Builder, the Progress Tracker tool lets schools know when they have reached a level of recognition. The National Recognition Award application process is a collaborative endeavor in which the school and the Alliance work together to take a deeper look at progress achieved toward meeting best practice criteria.
