      Financials – Darla Vanduren

      Darla provided the December financials and reviewed the highlights with the group.

       





      Wellness Program

      Gail shared a report of Wellness program activities over the past month. She noted the end of the Wellness Challenge through HealthForce Partners and shared that it was bittersweet because it had influenced employees’ health. She, Sean and Aayna will be working together to tailor and incorporate the United Health Care (UHC) Wellness options for employees who selected UHC health benefits. The UHC wellness options do not apply to approximately 524 employees who selected Group Health.

       





      Craft Wellness Program Vision Statement

      The group reviewed what was discussed at the December meeting regarding the Wellness program mission statement. Gail asked the Trustees to think about what they would want in a vision statement and shared the vision and mission statement from the Charleston County School District in Charleston, South Carolina. Gail said she would like to see board policies, lists of specific foods, healthy meetings, a health and wellness conscience culture, wellness committees with principal appointed overseers’, modeled wellness, and clear messages regarding wellness. The group discussed the information and provided feedback.

       

      The Trustees shared what they thought the vision statement should encompass and that it should be a snappy one sentence statement that people would remember. Gail will incorporate the current Trust wellness policy in the program goals and will also look at other district’s wellness policies.
