Tools for Schools
National Health Education Standards (NHES) are written expectations for what students should know and be able to do by grades 2, 5, 8, and 12 to promote personal, family, and community health. The standards provide a framework for curriculum development and selection, instruction, and student assessment in health education.
Health Education Curriculum Analysis Tool (HECAT)
Health Education Curriculum Analysis Tool (HECAT) can help school districts, schools, and others conduct a clear, complete, and consistent analysis of health education curricula based on the National Health Education Standards and CDC’s Characteristics of Effective Health Education Curricula.
CDC’s School Health Education Resources (SHER)
CDC’s School Health Education Resources (SHER) provides access to the school health education offerings available from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
