    Comprehensive School Physical Activity Program

    The comprehensive school physical activity program (CSPAP) training is an evidence based, data driven, physical activity improvement model developed by the Society of Health and Physical Educators (SHAPE America) and is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  CSPAP attendees learn to assess and implement physical activity in and around the school day, which helps students work toward meeting the nationally recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity.  The CSPAP model encourages students and staff to develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to be physically active for a lifetime.
