ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To understand adolescents' perceptions on school health. METHOD: Qualitative and descriptive research grounded on Maurice Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology, which was developed with 90 adolescent students from a federal school of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Data were produced by gathering answers to the following question: what is your perception on school health? Those who chose to write their answer to the guiding question deposited the manuscripts in polls. RESULTS: School health is linked to hygienist practices and to the hegemonic assistentialist model. Nevertheless, we assigned senses and meanings to the practice of physical activity and health education by integrating and expanding behavioral strategies and healthy habits. FINAL CONSIDERATIONS: a healthy school environment implies the protagonism of adolescents in school health promotion actions.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Comprender las percepciones del ser adolescente sobre la salud en la escuela. Método: Investigación cualitativa, descriptiva, basada en la fenomenología de Maurice Merleau-Ponty, desarrollada con 90 alumnos adolescentes de una escuela federal del estado de Río de Janeiro. Se recogieron los datos por medio del discurso hablado en respuesta al cuestionamiento: ¿cuál es su percepción sobre la salud en la escuela? Aquellos que optaron por escribir la respuesta a esta cuestión principal la depositaron en urnas. Resultados: La salud en la escuela se encuentra vinculada a las prácticas higienistas y al modelo hegemónico asistencialista. Sin embargo, sentidos y significados fueron asignados a la práctica de actividad física y educación en salud -estrategias integradoras y multiplicadoras de comportamientos y hábitos saludables. Consideraciones finales: El hacer salud en la escuela pasa por el protagonismo del ser adolescente sobre su salud en la reorganización de las acciones de promoción de la salud en la escuela.

The NASN Code of Ethics upholds that it is the responsibility of the school nurse to maintain competency and pursue personal and professional growth. Designing professional development activities that are relevant and support the needs of the school nurse can be a challenge. The Framework for 21st Century School Nursing Practice provides a model rooted in evidence-based standards of practice that can be utilized to assess an existing professional development program and identify gaps in learning opportunities. Nurse leaders can use the Framework for 21st Century Nursing Practice to provide a roadmap toward a professional development program that will be meaningful to school nurse staff, help restore or maintain joy in their practice, and allow them to achieve the goal of advancing the well-being, academic success, and lifelong achievement and health of students.
