Assessing District Policy Alignment with the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child Model in Connecticut, 2019 to 2020
Few studies to date have examined the degree to which school policies represent a comprehensive and integrated approach to creating safe, healthy, and supportive school environments. Fifty-four Connecticut public school districts’ policies were evaluated using the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model to assess areas of strength and need. School district policy coverage of the WSCC model within Connecticut varies by domain and is often fragmented, showing the need for more comprehensive and coordinated efforts.
