Schools can be recognized for implementing best practices in up to nine topic areas, based on criteria in the Thriving Schools Integrated Assessment: Nearly 75% of the awardees are Title I schools, and nearly two-thirds serve majority BIPOC students. This year, Healthier Generation expanded its award program to meet schools and districts where they are, celebrating excellence amid ongoing challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic and systemic inequities, especially for individuals that identify as Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Color (BIPOC) and youth from under-resourced communities. Supported by Harmony SEL at National University, Kaiser Permanente, and Kohl’s, this recognition celebrates 406 schools across 26 states for their achievements in advancing the physical, mental, and social-emotional health of students, staff, and families. Alliance for a Healthier Generation, one of the nation’s preeminent children’s health organizations, today announced the 2022 list of America’s Healthiest Schools.
