An EAS member school follows a health promoting schools approach (also known as comprehensive school health) to
ensure clear, consistent, healthy messages are delivered in the home,
school and community. Members focus on providing and promoting the
benefits of physical activity, healthy eating and mental health
throughout the school community. These three aspects of health are
valued and integrated into daily life. Member school communities
understand that the health and well being of students is a shared
responsibility.
Alberta's physical education and health curricula are the
cornerstones that ensure each student has an equal and equitable
opportunity to experience and learn about the importance of healthy,
active living through the prescribed instructional program.
Education is a shared responsibility involving students, parents,
teachers, the school and the community. Additionally, EAS goes beyond
behaviour and strives to provide a school environment where students
have a variety of opportunities and are encouraged to be physically
active and make healthy choices. EAS communities make a commitment to
create a vision and a mind-set to support active living, healthy eating
and mental health.
