What Wellness has to Offer
SVVSD Wellness takes an eight pillar approach to wellness, the eight pillars are physical, social, environmental, spiritual, occupational, intellectual, financial, and emotional. During the school year we offer classes that correlate to either one or multiple of the pillars, touching on everything at least once. Information for upcoming events is passed onto your buildings Wellness Advocate to share or found in the HR newsletter.
