A significant body of research indicates teachers are suffering from stress, which leads to a variety of physical ailments, drinking, and high turnover rate. This research assessed a comprehensive, educational intervention wellness program aimed at increasing teachers' knowledge of health and wellness. This research implemented an instructional intervention wellness program to increase teachers' knowledge of health and wellness, delivered in web-based and face-to-face formats. The delivery formats were compared to determine, which one was more effective in improving wellness knowledge retention for grades K-5 educators. Fifty teachers completed the wellness intervention. A paired sample t-test and factorial MANOVA was used to determine differences in increased knowledge. The results of paired samples t-tests for both the web-based and the face-to-face participants were statistically significant. The results of the factorial MANOVA were not significant, suggesting a need for further research.
