RSD's Staff Wellness Committee

Did you know that RSD has a staff wellness committee made up of employee representatives from across the district and from different buildings/departments?

We do! Our charge as a committee is to provide access and input into resources and activities that center employee wellness and share them with RSD employees. The committee was formed as part of a statewide initiative aimed at supporting educators who experience Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS).

Below you can find regularly updated resources that you can access for free.

Spring Wellness Webinars (clock hours provided)

The Way to Staff Wellbeing in Schools: Healthy Habits - Nutrition

In this workshop, Nicole Merriam, Kaiser Permanente Clinical Dietitian, will help attendees understand the impact nutrition has on their wellbeing and offer resources to help them create reasonable and actionable steps to support healthy living practices individually and collectively. Participants will have opportunity to ask questions and engage the experts in developing strategies that support a healthy workforce.
