  Employee Wellness Guide
          At a glance
            * School staff can give their best when they feel their best. And a school employee wellness program can help.
            * Schools and school districts can provide an employee wellness program that includes healthy eating and physical activity.
            * Fostering the physical and mental health of school employees also helps to support students’ health and academic success.
        Why it's important
        Every school employee, no matter their role, contributes to a school’s mission. School staff can give their best when they feel their best—and a school employee wellness program can help.
        When staff model these healthy behaviors, they can reinforce them with students.
        Additionally, supporting school employee wellness programs can:
          * Improve staff retention and productivity.
          * Decrease employee absenteeism.
          * Decrease employee health care costs.
