WHAT IS THE PTSA HEALTH & WELLNESS PROGRAM AT CAL HIGH ?

WHY HEALTH & WELLNESS?

It is famously said that our students spend more than 1000 hours per year in school. While the main focus at school is Academic, Athletic, and Social learning, the good health of students is key to success. The CH PTSA is committed to promoting the good health and well-being of all our students. 

With access to the Wellness Center and the Zen Den, the students at Cal High have the tools within reach to stay focused, grounded, and content. The CH PTSA Health & Wellness program works closely with the experts at the Wellness Center, to support their ideas and work, above and beyond the resources already provided by the school.

We work around the five key factors:

• Meditation, Reflection, and Relaxation

• Good full night Sleep and Rest

• Physical Exercise, Outdoor Activities, and access to Air and Daylight.

• Nutrition, Good Food, and Hydration.

• Nurturing the Heart, but physical health and mental self.

Health and Safety are closely related, as stated by California State PTA. Our H&W programs are therefore also involved in many events that the ASB leadership team organizes on campus.
