25 School District/ Region Child Health Type 2 Diabetes Measurements Hutto and Round Rock ISDs: The Risk Assessment for Type 2 Diabetes in Children is a legislatively mandated program developed, coordinated, and administered by The University of Texas-Pan American Border Health Office (BHO). The program assesses children who may be at high risk of developing Type 2 diabetes. During vision/hearing and scoliosis screenings of 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th graders, certified individuals assess children for the Acanthosis nigricans (AN) marker, a skin condition that signals high insulin levels. Children who are identified with the marker undergo additional assessments of body mass index (BMI), BMI percentile, and blood pressure. Referrals to a health care professional for further assessment are issued to the parents of these children, alerting each parent of what the risk factors are and what changes will be necessary to prevent or delay future health problems for children at risk of developing type 2 diabetes and other health conditions.

Students complete an assessment that includes a variety of health-related physical fitness tests that assess aerobic capacity; muscular strength, muscular endurance and flexibility; and body composition. Scores from these assessments are compared to Healthy Fitness Zone standards to determine students' overall physical fitness. Standards are based on levels of fitness needed for good health as determined by the FitnessGram creators at the Cooper Institute. Source: Texas Education Agency. On average, 31 percent of Hutto ISD and 72 percent of Round Rock ISD students in grades 3-12 completed the FitnessGram assessment in school year.

29 Child Health (cont d.): Texas School Survey Hutto and Round Rock ISDs: The Texas School Survey of Drug and Alcohol Use is an annual collection of self-reported tobacco, alcohol, inhalant, and substance (both licit and illicit) use data from among elementary and/or secondary students in individual districts throughout the state of Texas. The survey, conducted by the Public Policy Research Institute (PPRI) in conjunction with the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS), is available for students in grades 4 through 6 and grades 7 through 12. The Texas School Survey of Drug and Alcohol Use has been conducted in Texas school districts since Local school district surveys are offered every year, with a statewide survey conducted every two years. The survey covers not only prevalence of substance use, but also other factors affecting youth substance use and students attitudes toward substance use. A corresponding statewide survey using identical survey instruments is conducted every two years. Data from the statewide sampling are incorporated into an over-time database maintained by DSHS to track trends in substance use so that policymakers at the state have up-to-date information upon which to base decisions and plot prevention strategies. These data also serve as an overall standard of comparison for use by those at the district to interpret, and act upon, local survey findings in a similar way (Texas School Survey of Drug and Alcohol Use website, 2011). In Round Rock ISD, 70 percent of students have at least tried an alcoholic product. Thirty-five (35) percent of students have at least tried a tobacco product and 36 percent have at least tried marijuana. In Hutto ISD, 48 percent of students have at least tried an alcoholic product. Seventeen (17) percent of students have at least tried a tobacco product and 21 percent have at least tried marijuana. *Note: Because of the difference in years and grades sampled, please do not compare school districts, as they are most likely not identical years and grades sampled.

31 Mortality Data (Cause of Death) (cont d): Years of Potential Life Lost (YPPL), and , Williamson County: The years of potential life lost (YPLL) decreased for Williamson County and all other adjacent and peer counties, excluding Collin County. Williamson County s YPLL rate decreased from 4,616 to 4,462 per 100,000 population, or 154. YPLL rates can be an important tool in public health interventions to target high-risk counties that have more premature (before age 75) deaths, many of which are likely to be preventable deaths (see Mortality Data section, page 25). According to the County Health Rankings, Every death occurring before the age of 75 contributes to the total number of years of potential life lost. For example, a person dying at age 25 contributes 50 years of life lost, whereas a person who dies at age 65 contributes 10 years of life lost to a county's YPLL. The YPLL measure is presented as a rate per 100,000 population and is age-adjusted to the 2000 US population. * Indicates a peer county in Texas, which was similar in demographics, geography, and culture.
