HEALTH education

Health education is an integral part of the total education of every child in kindergarten through grade 12. Quality health education programs are needed to increase student knowledge on various age-appropriate contemporary health issues and to apply appropriate skills to take action that promotes or restores health. Health education helps youth become health literate people who are critical thinkers, creative problem solvers, self-directed learners, effective communicators, and ultimately responsible and productive citizens.
