BMI Repository
We are excited to announce that the BMI Repository to collect Height-Weight and BMI data is ready to collect your Ht-Wt data for this year.
There are many groups interested in this data and you have a chance to contribute.
Use CHIP-AZ to export Ht-Wt data for all the school years you have entered it into CHIP-AZ. (Be assured, no student identification is exported!)
If you have not entered all your Ht-Wt. data yet, you should still Export what you have NOW. This will ensure that data for past years is collected before you do any deletions of students as part of a cleanup process.
As you continue to enter Ht-Wt screenings for the current school year you can periodically perform BMI Export again after you have entered more data. Data will not be duplicated.
Some nurses have indicated that HT-Wt is tracked by their physical education department. Some nurses have enlisted parent volunteers to enter the information captured by the PE Dept into CHIP-AZ so it can be part of the BMI Repository.
