11. Would you agree... …if we want children to eat healthy foods & be physically active, we must work toward providing an enjoyable and supportive environment that teaches and encourages them how to be healthy for a lifetime?

12. Coordinated School Health l A process which brings a school community together to teach children to be healthy for a lifetime. What is Coordinated School Health & CATCH? CATCH l A resource that helps schools make it fun and doable to implement CSH. l A coordinated program that can be implemented campus-wide to create & support a healthy environment

13. Why CATCH? Because it works! If you change the environment, behavior will follow!

14. Implement Coordinated School Health – CATCH – to help create a healthy environment and promote healthy habits. The CATCH Program breaks down implementation activities into smaller, doable tasks – a new task every 9-week grading period.  Resources needed to implement your task(s) are provided! What are we being asked to do?

15. What do we use? The CATCH Program Materials ALL materials needed are available electronically.

16. To be a school where everyone is working together and speaking a common language that creates and maintains a healthy school environment. Goal

17. CATCH blends coordination throughout a campus by using a common and consistent language. – CATCH MVP – GO, SLOW, & WHOA Foods The “Language of CATCH”

18. CATCH Schools aim to achieve healthy behaviors and positive outcomes in the following areas: M ove and stay active V alue healthy eating P ractice healthy habits CATCH MVP School

19. GO foods are lower in fat, and/or added sugar, and/or they are less processed relative to foods in the same food group and are commonly described as ‘whole foods’. SLOW foods are higher in fat, and/or added sugar, and may be more processed than GO foods. WHOA foods are highest in fat, added sugar, and/or are the most processed. GO – SLOW – WHOA

20. CATCH Coordination Toolkit Guides a school’s efforts to implement the program – Led by the CSH/CATCH Champion &Team Implementation efforts follow our 9-week grading periods – 1 to 3 tasks per 9-weeks Resources are provided and available electronically

21. There are 4 Themes (1 theme each 9-weeks) in that focus implementation on a common school-wide initiative. Themes: – Our CATCH School: Creating Healthy Change – Talk the Talk: Speaking the Language of CATCH – The Home Team: Family Matters – CATCH MVPs: Celebrating Success CATCH Program Organization

22. How do we know what to do? There is specific information, tasks, and ready-made resources for everyone on campus. Look for updates and/or emails from me or the CSH Team about what theme we are in, the tasks we are asking you to do, and where you can easily find your resources.

23. Coordination Folders Includes information about: ― Why CATCH? ― Your CATCH Role ― CATCH MVP School ― CATCH Coordination Guide ― Using the Guide ― Making it Happen ― Making It Happen ― Theme Implementation Tasks ― Resources (Spanish and English)
