Completing additional Modules (5-8) is great data; additional SHI Health Topics (Safety) is great data to have and use. Module 1 & 2 are incomplete and missing the Tobacco Use Health Topic.  In the future the submission will be returned for revisions/completion.

​Schools may access the most recent published BMI data using the following website:​

Body Mass Index (BMI)


Develop a brief narrative of student BMI trends based on the analysis of the data.

Obesity is a major health problem that affects students. Obesity leads to many additional health problems. Through Body Mass Index screenings at Hackett for the 2020-2021 school year, 43.46% of females screened and 14.68% of males screened, fell into the obese category; for a total of 58.14% of our screened students being obese.  Our plan is to continue monitoring our current health and wellness program and make adjustments where needed to assist our students in becoming healthier.
