Health Education Standards and Resources
Students in grade nine integrate a variety of health concepts, skills, and behaviors to plan for their personal, lifelong health goals (self-management and responsible decision making). These include awareness and consequences of risky behaviors, disease prevention, overall wellness, and identification of community health resources (social awareness and responsible decision making). Students demonstrate competence in their knowledge and skills. They see themselves as having an active role in creating a healthy lifestyle for themselves, for their families, and for the community (relationship skills and responsible decision making).
