Agenda Item Summary: The memo informs the Board of the ACPS Human Resources Department’s staff wellness plan for the 2022-2023 school year. Supporting the health of school staff impacts retention and recruitment of quality staff and also helps to support students’ health and academic success. Every school employee, no matter the role they play, contributes to a school’s mission and can benefit from a comprehensive wellness program.
Background: Wellness is more than just the absence of illness. A broader approach to the concept of wellness is being revamped to support our staff so that they may in turn support the social and emotional health of our students. A partnership between the Compensation and Benefits Department and the cadre of Wellness Champions representing each school meet regularly to support the six dimensions of wellness:
 Physical
 Mental
 Social
 Emotional
 Spiritual
 Environmental
Recommendation: The Interim Superintendent recommends that the School Board review the information on staff wellness.
