Dear Parent/Student

Here is an overview of what your child/ you will be learning in Health and Physical Education throughout your time at LVTI. Through health literacy, self-management skills, and health promotion, a comprehensive health education teaches fundamental health concepts, promotes habits, and conduct that enhance health and wellness, and guides efforts to build healthy families, relationships, schools, and communities. A planned sequential curriculum addresses a variety of topics with increasing degrees of complexity appropriate to students’ developmental levels.
