| OH | Signed into law 06/2010 | P-12 | Establishes the Healthy Choices for Healthy Children Council. Directs the council to:
(1) Monitor progress in improving student health and wellness
(2) Make periodic policy recommendations to the state board of education on ways to improve the nutritional standards for food and beverages served in public schools
(3) Make periodic recommendations to the department of education for the development of a clearinghouse of best practices in the areas of student nutrition, physical activity for students, and body mass index (BMI) screenings
(4) Assist the department of health in developing a list of resources on health risks associated with weight status, for distribution to parents
(5) Regularly review developments in science and nutrition to inform recommendations to the state board and department of education.
Requires the department of education, upon receipt of the council's initial recommendations, to establish a clearinghouse of best practices that schools may use to promote student health. Directs the department to update the clearinghouse as needed to reflect subsequent council recommendations.
Establishes new Section 3313.674, which requires students in kindergarten, 3rd, 5th and 9th grades to undergo a BMI and weight status category screening. Allows parents to opt their child out of screening requirement. Requires parents of each screened student to be notified of any health risks associated with the student's results and to be provided with information about appropriately addressing the risks. Requires local boards/charter school governing authorities to report aggregated BMI and weight status category data and any other demographic data required by the director of health, to the department of health. Allows a local board/governing authority to obtain a waiver from this requirement.
Directs the department of education to issue an annual report on public schools' compliance with new Section 3313.674. Establishes new Section 3313.6016, which directs the department of education, beginning in the 2011-12 school year, to administer a pilot program requiring daily physical activity for students. Permits any district, charter school, STEM school or nonpublic school to choose to participate; if a district elects to participate, requires all buildings operated by that district to participate. Specifies that participating schools must require students (grades K-12) to engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate to rigorous physical activity, not including recess, and that physical activity as part of a physical education course or before- or after-school activity may count towards this requirement. Identifies students excused from this requirement, including among others kindergarten students not enrolled in a full-day kindergarten program. Requires participating districts or schools to report to the department how the 30 minutes of daily physical activity was implemented and the financial cost of implementation; requires the department to issue an annual report of this data.
By December 31, 2011, directs the state board of education to develop a measure of (1) student success in meeting benchmarks in the physical education standards; (2) compliance with the requirements for local wellness policies prescribed by the federal "Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 2004"; (3) whether a school or district is complying with or operating under a waiver from Section 3313.674; and (4) whether a district or building is participating in the physical activity pilot program established through new Section 3313.6016. Requires the measure to be included in building and district report cards, beginning with report cards issued for the 2012-13 school year, but specifies that the measure will not be a factor in performance ratings issued. Permits the department to accept, receive and expend gifts, devises or bequests of money for the purpose of establishing this measure.
Amends high school graduation requirements to require the half-unit of health to include instruction in nutrition and the benefits of nutritious foods and physical activity for overall health.
Requires that each public, charter and STEM school teacher hired after July 2013 to teach physical education holds a valid license for teaching physical education.

| MN | Signed into law 05/2010 | P-12 | Establishes the healthy kids awards program to reward k-12th grade schools that implement policies and practices that create opportunities for students to be physically active and make healthy food choices throughout the day.
