Check a district's local school wellness policy and triennial assessment against the federal required elements

Takes a district's public local school wellness policy and its most recent triennial assessment and drafts a gap list against 7 CFR 210.31. Under 210.31(c) the policy must contain, at a minimum: specific goals for nutrition promotion and education, physical activity and other wellness activities, after reviewing evidence-based strategies; standards for foods and beverages provided but not sold during the school day; nutrition standards for foods and beverages sold during the school day, consistent with 210.10, 220.8 and 210.11, with on-campus marketing limited to foods and beverages that meet 210.11; the position of the official responsible for implementation and oversight; how parents, students, school food authority staff, PE teachers, school health professionals, the board, administrators and the public can take part in development, review and updates; and the plan for measuring implementation and reporting to the public. It also checks 210.31(e): an assessment at least once every three years covering school compliance, comparison with model policies and progress toward goals, made public; and the 210.31(f) records list. Each element is marked found, not found or needs review, with the policy section cited.

Human in the loop: The wellness coordinator confirms every finding and decides on any policy update; the board approves changes. The workflow does not rewrite policy or judge any school. Limits: State agencies review wellness policies in their own administrative reviews and may add requirements. The workflow reads public documents only. Not legal advice. Methodology 1.0: Strong candidate for replay.
