SHAQ

St Benedict School is an Upgrade School that administers the Student Health Assessment Questionnaire (SHAQ) to students in grades three and above during the first and third years of their grant to assess students’ nutrition and physical activity behaviors. Because Upgrade is focused on promoting strategies that encourage healthy eating and physical activity during the school day, it is essential to measure student health behaviors (e.g., fruit and vegetable consumption, physical activity) throughout the grant cycle to determine the program’s effectiveness. The SHAQ instrument is a validated self-assessment tool adapted from the well-known and widely researched Student Physical Activity and Nutrition Survey (SPAN). Results of the SHAQ are de-identified and only reported in aggregate at the school level.
