The Healthy School Awards is open to public K-12 schools physically located in Mississippi.

The Healthy School Awards is a school-level recognition award. School districts are not eligible to apply.

Eligibility of Winning Schools

Schools receiving the “Healthiest School” award designation are ineligible to submit an award application for three years following their award year. Schools receiving the “Healthy School” award may submit an application, but will only be eligible for the “Healthiest School” award for a three year period. If a “Healthy School” award winner does not win a “Healthiest School” award within the three year period, the school is again eligible for the “Healthy School” award.
