Health
The purpose of this home page is to help you to understand the goals of Health Education in the Isles District. We continue to focus on helping students (K-12) appreciate the advantages of wellness, and guide students toward wise decisions about their personal health.
Standards and Curriculum
The major goals of health education are achieved through a comprehensive curriculum based on an orderly sequence of learning experiences that introduce students to major health concepts and concerns. There is an emphasis on prevention. Through a developmental curriculum, students recognize that wellness depends on personal decisions. These decisions are made at an early age and continue throughout their lifetime. Students must have sufficient information to differentiate between healthy and harmful behaviors and to recognize the consequences of their decisions. Classroom experiences provide students with opportunities to solve problems, to make responsible decisions, and to apply knowledge to their daily lives.
