Proposed Project
1. School Health Policies and Programs Study 2000 (SHPPS 2000)-
(0920-0445)--Revision--The National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP). The purpose of this request
is to obtain OMB clearance to conduct the main data collection studies
and the validity/reliability studies. The pilot portion of the data
collection was approved in April. Upon the completion of the pilot this
package will be submitted for OMB review for the remainder of the
survey. The studies involve school health policies and programs in
elementary, middle/junior, and senior high schools nationwide. A
similar study was conducted in 1994 (OMB No. 0920-0340). SHPPS 2000
will assess the characteristics of eight components of school health
programs at the elementary, middle/junior, and senior high school
levels: health education, physical education and activity, health
services, food service, school policy and environment, mental health
and social services, faculty and staff health promotion, and family and
community involvement. SHPPS 2000 data will be used to provide end-of-
decade measures for 18 national health objectives for 2000 and as a
baseline measure for at least 17 draft objectives for 2010. No other
national source of data exists for these 2000 and draft 2010
objectives. The data also will have significant implications for policy
and program development for school health programs nationwide. The
total estimated cost to respondents $602,664.
