Healthy Habits Safety Pledge

Promoting healthy habits to prevent the spreading of germs along with kindness and support of others is this year’s focus. Helping students be mindful of their actions as we all strive for healthy wellness at school. Join KCSS and others across the commonwealth as we pledge to incorporate healthy habits daily.

I will pledge to do my part to Shield our School by:

  • I’ll mask up and cover my face, when I’m in a public place.
  • Frequently, I’ll wash my hands, which keep them clean, that’s my plan.
  • I’ll keep space between others and me, to help us stay germ-free.
  • I’ll be extra kind everyplace, virtual school and face-to-face.
  • I’ll consider others as I learn, everyone deserves their turn.

The Kentucky “HEALTHY HABITS, Shield Our Schools!” campaign is sponsored by the Kentucky Center for School Safety. This observance coincides with the national campaign. America’s Safe Schools Week is sponsored by the National School Safety Center. “I encourage all Kentuckians to get involved and model healthy habits and show extra kindness and support across our Commonwealth for our schools and the tremendous job being done to keep our students safe. Modeling kindness in our everyday lives will help build the safe communities and schools of tomorrow. Joining together, we can make “HEALTHY HABITS, Shield Our Schools!” a part of our everyday healthy wellness routine.” said Jon Akers, Executive Director, KCSS.

During Safe Schools Week the KCSS website supplies a variety
of teaching aids along with the online pledge and Kentucky
