Abstract

This survey identified and described health characteristics of selected school principals-leaders and role models for teachers and students. A questionnaire assessing multiple areas of well-being collected data on principals' health in seven areas including attitudes, behavior, illnesses, and life experiences. Results indicated a higher-than-average group well-being score and a range of healthful behaviors practiced over the seven areas. Principals reported little involvement with drugs, relative comfort in their employment, and healthful patterns of coping behaviors. Changes that might contribute to increased well-being were indicated in physical exercise, diet, and stress and time management. Implications for these results include using the principal's interest in health and role modeling behaviors to promote the school health program.
