Health & Wellness at the CBE

At the CBE, we believe in a whole school approach to health and wellness. We call this our Comprehensive School Health (CSH) approach. CSH is about healthy eating, active living, supportive social environments and positive mental health. As a system, we focus on the following four areas: healthy eating; healthy relationships; physical activity; and positive mental health. Each school creates its own approach and goals for health and wellness.

Visit the CBE website to learn more about health and wellness in schools.​​​​​

SPARK Bikes

SPARK bikes are specially designed, silent stationary bikes for classrooms that help students self-regulate their emotions, regain focus, or just take an activity break. Bowcroft School received a grant and an anonymous donation and purchased a number of bikes for their students earlier this year. See our story on the showcase page. The name of the bike is based on Daniel Raty's book Spark, which is about ADHD and movement.

LAST CHANCE to register for yellow school bus transportation. If you do not register by the June 11 deadline you will not be included in route planning for the fall and may be responsible for transportation for the first six weeks of school. https://t.co/EV8CAc6U9H #WeAreCBE https://t.co/wi3SDZ4VaI
