Studies on student weight

Read reports on body mass index (BMI) screening in public schools. Reports span 2009 to 2017.

These reports focus on BMI screenings in public schools (issued yearly for most years between 2011 and 2017). They are the result of the Public Health Council's 2009 decision to require school systems to measure the height and weight of public school students in grades 1, 4, 7,  and 10.

For information regarding previous school years, please contact Robert Leibowitz at Robert.Leibowitz@State.MA.US or (617) 624-5474.
