Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Implementation strategy for active learning to promote physical activity

The experimental arm includes using a multifaceted implementation strategy to support the use of classroom-based physical activity approaches. The strategy consists of a series of leadership trainings designed to help them support teachers, teacher trainings to build skills, and a monthly newsletter to reinforce implementation and provide access to existing resources.

BEHAVIORAL

Usual implementation support

Usual support consists of the potential to access general resources from the district wellness department. These resources include access to funds to send staff to external trainings and general guidance for how to use active learning approaches.
