公立学校为学生提供参加许多自由裁量的、非强制性的健康项目的机会。关于这些项目的数量、它们在学校中的分布以及所服务的学生种类，我们知之甚少。我们为纽约市（NYC）公立schools. METHODS健康计划的数据收集从程序网站，纽约市的学校食品和健康的办公室，并与计划赞助商的2013年直接接触这些问题提供证据。这些计划被分为营养、健身和综合等类别，并与纽约市教育部提供的学校特征数据相结合。使用描述性统计和多元回归分析了与人口统计学和学校结构特征的关系的程序和程序的提供数量。几乎没有证据支持根据学生种族/民族，收入或出生地的不平等，但高中，新学校，同址学校，小学校，结论存在机会，以进一步在公立学校的健康计划，通过修改他们的高中采用和建设能力的学校不太可能有健康计划的覆盖面。提供行政支持，为他们提供住房。
BACKGROUNDPublic schools provide students with opportunities to participate in many discretionary, unmandated wellness programs. Little is known about the number of these programs, their distribution across schools, and the kinds of students served. We provide evidence on these questions for New York City (NYC) public schools.METHODSData on wellness programs were collected from program websites, NYC's Office of School Food and Wellness, and direct contact with program sponsors for 2013. Programs were grouped into categories, nutrition, fitness, and comprehensive, and were combined with data on school characteristics available from NYC's Department of Education. Numbers of programs and provision of programs were analyzed for relationships with demographic and school structural characteristics, using descriptive statistics and multiple regression.RESULTSDiscretionary wellness programs are numerous, at 18 programs. Little evidence supports inequity according to student race/ethnicity, income, or nativity, but high schools, new schools, co‐located schools, small schools, and schools with larger proportions of inexperienced teachers are less likely to provide wellness programs.CONCLUSIONSOpportunities exist to further the reach of wellness programs in public schools by modifying them for high school adoption and building capacity in schools less likely to have the administrative support to house them.
