Table of ContentsReviews“The editorial and contributor teams behind the second edition of Promoting Health and Academic Success provide enriched material that is not only contemporary but also highly applicable. Best practices, tips for application, and engaging activities within this book demystify the Whole School, Whole Child, Whole Community (WSCC) approach, making it accessible for today’s school communities. Informative, practical, and engaging, this resource serves as a beacon in our current educational landscape. It’s more than just a book; it’s a blueprint for cultivating healthy, safe, and thriving school environments. Its relevance extends beyond the classroom, making it essential reading for higher education students in school health education and public health programs. But its impact doesn’t stop there—it should be mandatory reading for every stakeholder in the education system, from school board members and administrators to service providers and classroom teachers.” —Fran Anthony Meyer, PhD, CHES, Former Executive Director of the Society of State Leaders of Health and Physical Education (SSLHPE) and Vice President of the International Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Dance, and Sport (IAHPEDS) “Promoting Health and Academic Success makes the case that connecting health and academics is vital for the whole child. History has taught us that curriculum, instruction, and assessment in health education still need more leveraging within the broader academic mission of schools. This text promotes a framework for child and youth development that embraces the whole school and whole community as a collaborative wraparound model. The editors have a sound vision for the current and ongoing needs of future generations.” —Valerie A.
