Comprehensive Health Education in New Mexico Public Schools: A Community Action Manual, 1978-1980

摘要

The Comprehensive Health Education (CHEd) program in New Mexico provides a comprehensive, sequential health education curriculum for public school students and coordinates health instruction with health services. The priority targets for CHEd programming are heart disease, accidents and dental and periodontal disease. The State Board of Education has included CHEd programming in its Minimum Educational Standards. At a minimum, CHEd programming should be used for nutrition; human growth; family health; health maintenance; consumer health; environmental health; community health; and mental, emotional, and social health. State legislation and synopses of pilot projects are appended. 3 references.
