Wellness is a framework within which children develop a productive
and enjoyable life. Academic achievement occurs within the
complexity of the content of a student's whole life. Although
students receive similar instruction and interventions in the
school setting, schools continue to experience ranges of student
mastery of content. The relationship is examined between multiple
dimensions of wellness (defined as a state of the totality of a
person's life as mind, body, and spirit interact with the
environmental contexts) and academic performance of elementary
students, based on a study for 634 third through fifth grade
students in Title One schools in rural Mississippi. Analysis should
help professionals in schools and community agencies develop
wellness interventions to support academic performance of children
and to enhance multiple areas of wellness for children.
