School Health Advisory Council (SHAC)
GISD has a school wellness plan that focuses on maintaining high standards of nutrition and wellness among students. The goal of the district’s nutrition and wellness plan is to strengthen and coordinate the components of school health. By doing so, we can provide a comprehensive learning environment for developing and practicing positive health behaviors that contribute to students’ wellness, academic performance, and lifelong health.

HB 9 - Texas Senate Bill 9 Information for Parents and Guardians
According to Texas Senate Bill 9, Groesbeck ISD is required to provide instruction relating to the prevention of child abuse, family violence, dating violence, and sex trafficking. Groesbeck ISD, with guidance from the School Health Advisory Council (SHAC), has approved the curriculum that will be used to teach each of these topics and has determined the grade level(s) that will receive instruction on each of these topics.
As a parent/guardian, you have the right to preview the curriculum(s) at any time. Your child’s campus will share information regarding parent education opportunities that will be offered throughout the school year, allowing you to preview the material(s) and ask questions of your child’s campus leaders. At least 14 days before each instructional presentation, your child’s campus will provide communication regarding the date(s) of each of these lessons.
Before a student may be provided with instruction related to child abuse, family violence, dating violence, and sex trafficking, Groesbeck ISD must obtain written consent from the student’s parent/guardian. Parents/Guardians will complete the SB9 Consent Form as part of Student Registration in Skyward Family Access. Please note: not all topics are covered at every grade level.
