At Lunt School, we believe that school climate and wellness are interconnected. School climate affects staff and student wellness, and staff and student wellness affects school climate. Both need to be attended to and fostered in order to maintain a warm, welcoming, healthy, peaceful learning environment for our students and staff. The Lunt School Climate and Wellness Team was formed to discuss and develop ongoing, school-wide activities and programs around these areas.

Our priority goals for the 2007-2008 school year are as follows:

  • Continue to encourage respect, responsibility and citizenship by expanding Lunt's recycling program.

Our priority goals for the 2006-2007 school year were as follows:

  • Establish a more structured, outside exercise period for second grade students (before lunch), and for first graders (after lunch).

    • Progress:

    Barely a month after our first School Climate and Wellness team meeting, and a program to meet this goal has already been developed and implemented. Spearheaded by physical education teacher, Jenn Doe, first and second grade students participate in the Mileage Club walking program during their exercise time before or after lunch.

  • Establish a school-wide character education program, based on common values, and common language.

    Progress:

    • With the School Climate and Wellness Team's recommendation, Lunt School has chosen CHARACTER COUNTS! Six Pillars of Character for Lunt's new, school-wide character education initiative. Our hope is that the Six Pillars of Character language, traits and values will eventually become a natural part of the school's culture, and will be interwoven throughout every classroom, every special, every aspect of the child's learning experience at Lunt. We had our launched our Six Pillars of Character efforts during class meetings in November. Click here to learn more.

  • Provide wellness activities for staff throughout the year

    Progress:

    School Nurse, Sue Raatikainen and Phys Ed teacher, Jenn Doe, got staff's Fall off on a healthy start - offering a health and fitness activity to encourage exercise, water intake and eating fruits and vegetables. Click here to learn more.
