Take Aways and Next Steps
Identified Areas for Student Improvement…
•The high percentage of OST participants who:
▫watch seven or more hours of TV, ▫do not eat many fruits and vegetables, ▫have few “family meals”, and ▫do not eat breakfast
•are areas for potential programming focus.
Next Administration
For the federal grant, PFSCS proposed the following:
•Within one year of beginning services, 90% of children participating in after-school will increase their knowledge and improve their attitudes around healthy eating habits as measured by the Healthy Habits Survey.
To Consider…
•Survey Process▫1. Similar to the parent version, do changes
need to be made to the survey and if so, what is the plan for moving forward?
▫2. Keep track of number of surveys administered and administration process
To Consider…• Is there anything else that you would like
analyzed from this data set?
•Can we link parent and child surveys?
•Are there other indicators of health and/or healthy habits that we would like to explore to move beyond self-reports?
•To what extent do the HH-scores correlate with other indicators of health and well-being?
