Does FCPS have a Wellness Policy?
In compliance with federal law 108-265, Child Nutrition and Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) Reauthorization Act of 2004, the Fairfax County School Board established a Wellness Policy for Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) that promotes student health and contributes to the reduction of childhood obesity. The components of the local wellness policy include nutrition education, physical education, nutrition guidelines for all foods available during the school day, and other activities that promote student wellness.
