12:18 am
implement enforcement of wells policy our current work a really stayed focused on there are many reasons why i'll go into that on the next slide we do to the revive this policy we developed recommendations extensive work it was a lot of collaboration and a lot of research by city staff by district staff, community-based organizations and members of the public we developed the recommendation and submitted them to the district leadership team the superintendant and the sfusd leadership team and we also copied you all on those at the end of the december 2013 since that time we've been continuing to meet with the leadership team to review the recommendations
12:19 am
that it's been a interim process and wonderful partnership with the district we've reviewed the draft recommendations that the district staff has come forth to provide input that woefd held public meetings to engage more stakeholders the reason that we this is done there is a lot of changes in the federal and state guidelines with a hunger active program there are many changes he wanted to make sure the local district policy was taking into consideration all the changes as well as current best practices by the school district it's important to codify the practices we began with the wellness policy from previous years and built on it we tried to focus on centralizing the associate justices through food and physical education we i'd
12:20 am
like the framework of the districts strategy plan focusing on access and equality and 50k9d ability so symany recognized was collared in how it advanced each of those we clifford included the scientific literature on the physical education achievement and health and tried to end the best practices with other scapegoats we utilized district specific data an student health and the achievement gap and used this opportunity to really strengthen physical education and physical activity component of the wellness policy so our next steps with going to be to continue to provide input to the district wellness leadership team object the policy that is being trod we'll do that through the committees where this policy will be advanced and we'll also work with the
12:21 am
superintendent staff to support the prelims we wanted to call out we know the implementation of the policy will require the resources so for the first reading in the implementation section and the evaluates and monitoring we had really support this i wanted to with that is just acknowledge the current food and fitness sires members some are here and some not i wanted to acknowledge the incredible work of all those who have contributed to the current policy that is being introduced tonight and this is been a labor of love many involved in the partnership with the district over a decade and but we're really thrilled that our recommendations we are taken by
12:22 am
this incredibly dedicated team of sfusd staff team that led and includes the departments listed on top of the slide we look forward to seeing this policy adopted by the board in the weeks and months to come all right. thank you. >> thank you very much for that presentation i have one speaker card on the wellness issue josh david son. >> to minutes please. hi, i'm josh david son i cook for the students in the department i'm existed about the i got of this policy most people are not existed by wellness this
12:23 am
is exactly when i want to read after a long and difficult day thank you very much there is the quote i carried around in my head i think guides what i do we're fat and sick and dying because we have handed a basically fundamental and function of our life over the corporations we choose to value our nourishment we put 2 to strainers feed you're loved ones and there's a little piece i want to suggest astonish considerations down the road which i feel like we should be teaching our kids that food is not something that always come out of a package you may society with snap crackle and pop and
12:24 am
no offense to my colleges friends but if you're eating a meal and you're hearing those sound as you're getting ready to eat a burger or chirps you should give thought to we're careful about what we put-down many the packages for students i'm glad we're careful maybe the lesson of the package is not one and a we necessarily want to give to the kids beyond our doors what ends up is in the packages is very unhewitt so maybe in taken care of e teaching kids the company of a table with the dishes is not super practical but something we may be want to strive for it would be useful so, anyway thank
12:25 am
you for your time (clapping.) thank you, mr. david son questions or comments from the commission commissioner wynns. >> thank you all for being here and your years and years of service that is skoeshl to us i want to reiterate even though it shouldn't be necessary but the thing i'm most proud we that of healthy food of a structural strategy in san francisco this is about student achievement and that is about success in life so i want to thank all the staff for other work they've done on the issued and look forward to carefully looking at the new policy proposals even though it was mention the development was awareness policy but record we had awareness policy in san francisco before the federal government required that every

12:30 am
many, many years i really appreciate the comments of commissioner wynns we talk about this as something we/have to do and the difference in san francisco for decades has billions rotunda we see the nougs education of our students as a integral part of a lifestyle of education we look at the data with type 2 diabetes and heart disease so if we're able to set our students on a path to good nutrition and healthy experience no matter where they live and who their parents are or their circumstances to commissioner wynns credit we're fulfill
