If available, a qualified, credentialed nutrition professional will be a member of the Wellness Committee. The Board designates the following individual(s) as wellness program coordinator(s): the Director of Nurses and the Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction and/or their designee. Only employees of the district who are members of the Wellness Committee may serve as Wellness Program Coordinators.
