Description:

In 2017, 96.8% of young people aged 7-17 years were enrolled in school in the United States.1 Because young people attend school about six hours a day approximately 180 days per year during a critical period of their development, schools are in a unique position to help improve the health status of children and adolescents nationwide. To measure progress in the implementation of school policies and practices to help improve the health of school-aged youth, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in collaboration with state and local education and health agencies, developed the School Health Profiles (Profiles). Profiles has been conducted biennially since 1996 and includes state, large urban school district, and territorial surveys of principals and lead health education teachers in middle and high schools. Profiles helps education and health agencies in these jurisdictions monitor and assess characteristics of and trends in school health education (including sexual health education); physical education and physical activity; practices related to bullying and sexual harassment; school health policies related to tobacco-use prevention and nutrition; school-based health services; family engagement and community involvement; and school health coordination.
