School Health Unit (SHU), is an effort made by schools to help students and school residents who are sick in the school area. SHU is usually done in the health room of a school. In another sense, SHU is an effort to foster and develop healthy habits and behavior in school age students which is carried out comprehensively (comprehensively) and integrated (integrative). To optimize the SHU program, the participation of students as subjects and not just objects needs to be increased.

Language development is the foundation for competence in social, emotional, behavioral, and academic performance. Although language impairment (LI) is known to co-occur with behavioral and mental health problems, LI is likely to be overlooked in school-age children with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD; Hollo, Wehby, & Oliver, in press). Because language deficits may contribute to the problem behavior and poor social development characteristic of children with EBD, the consequences of an undiagnosed language disorder can be devastating. Implications include the need to train school professionals to recognize communication deficits. Further, it is critically important that specialists collaborate to provide linguistic and behavioral support for students with EBD and LI.

During the past two decades, financial access to health care has improved for the very young, with emphasis on immunizations and medical care facilities for infants and mothers. Well-woman mandates, such as cancer detection and treatment programs, have improved the health of adult women. Even efforts to meet the needs of an ever-growing elderly population have improved. In contrast to expansions and improvements in care for the aforementioned populations, among others, there is still a population whose unmet medical needs have grown exponentially: school-age youth. Morbidity and mortality for todays school-age children are linked most often to complex behavior patterns and psychosocial risk factors. Prevention and treatment of these patterns and factors often require a multidisciplinary approach using educational and case management strategies; social, mental health, dental, and nutritional services; and traditional medical services. In recognition of the school as the focus of many communities and in recognition of this population's disproportionate drain on medical expenditures, current and projected, there has been a push for more monies to be spent on developing integrated school-based and school-linked clinics. These clinics should focus on meeting community needs and should emphasize coordination and cooperation between private and public agencies. If such efforts are not continued into the 21st century, this least-served population, which on the surface seems to be the healthiest, will be a major factor in the rising cost of care, particularly because they lacked a medical home while they were school age.

THE problem of health services for children of school age is particularly timely in view of current interest in such services. The editors of this column have asked several authorities in this field to state their opinion of the objectives of a school health service and to describe practical methods of attaining these goals. The first two letters in the current issue deal with this subject; other letters on health services for children of school age will be published in subsequent issues. Dr. James L. Wilson is professor of pediatrics at the University of Michigan; Dr. Jessie M. Bierman is professor of maternal and child health at the University of California School of Public Health; and Dr. Dorothy B. Nyswander is professor of Public Health Education in the same school, and the author of "Solving School Health Problems, the Astoria Demonstration Study," the Commonwealth Fund, 1942. The last two letters are from Dr. Albert D. Kaiser, health officer of Rochester, New York. Dr. Kaiser has described the program of the Council of Rochester Regional Hospitals for improving medical care in the 11 counties served by the member hospitals in the June issue of this column. His first letter in this issue describes how these services might be extended if additional funds were available. His second communication serves to make clear what was meant by "institutes conducted for . . . governing boards" as described in the eighth paragraph of his first letter.
