Protecting the health and safety of children and adolescents in schools (defined for the purposes of this report to include public educational institutions for children and adolescents in grades K-12) is an important part of any comprehensive education and public health plan. Through a coordinated school health program (CSHP) offering courses, services, policies, and programs designed to meet the health and safety needs of K-12 students, schools can "provide a critical facility in which many agencies might work together to maintain the well-being of young people."
