Web Resources

The Coordinated School Health Model is comprised of eight components, which all work together, to make a healthy child. These website resources are divided into the eight components to help provide lessons, resources, curriculums and programs to help your schools implement the Coordinated School Health model.

Each component is divided up into 2 categories: Curriculum and Lesson ideas and Educational Resources. The "Curriculum and Lesson ideas" column includes website with curriculums and lesson ideas you can incorporate into your classroom. The "Educational Resources" column includes websites that may supplement a lesson or websites that have tools or displays to help with your lesson.

There are many resources that focus on school health and children's health, and KCSH is providing some of those on this webpage. KCSH does it's best to keep this page up-to-date with resources and curriculums.
