All children (control and intervention) received classroom delivery of the Let’s Go 5-2-1-0 Program curriculum by the PHN. Intervention children also received 1:1 student nurse coaching, parent evening offerings, and reinforcement incentives. Nursing students were trained in the
5-2-1-0 curriculum and in motivational interviewing principles and skills. Training included didactic content, role playing,and use of video programs on motivational interviewing.At EHS, WSU nursing students were partnered with children beginning in late October 2008 through early May 2009. Coaching sessions were designed to occur after school hours at the location preferred by parent, or by telephone. The total number of sessions ranged from 1 to 12.5 sessions (15–75 min).

Weekly sessions (range,10–14) were held at the school (with the nursing faculty member present) during the lunch hour; 2 parent evening offerings were held during this project period.
