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.

Classroom Champions
Bowcroft’s Classroom Champion is Erica Voss! Steve Mesler, three time Olympian and founder of Classroom Champions (and a dad of one of our students), has connected Bowcroft with this program that is now part of our Well-Being curriculum. Please check it out!

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.
