The
Stuart Report (Outside Source)
The Stuart Report, Ensuring That No Child is Left Behind:
How Are Student Health Risk and Resilience Related to the Academic
Progress of Schools is now available. Based on data from
the California
Healthy Kids Survey (Outside Source), this report underscores the importance
of risk and youth development factors to academic achievement.
According to this report, policies and practices that focus exclusively
on raising test scores, while ignoring the comprehensive health
needs of students, are likely to leave many children behind. A
corresponding PowerPoint
presentation (PPT; Outside source) includes talking points
and background information to enable anyone to make a presentation
on the study results.
