California Health Education Framework
The State Board of Education adopted the California Health Education Framework (HEF) in 2019. This framework addresses significant updates and changes to health instruction from the 2008 Health Education Standards, including additional initiatives and policies, designed to better assist health educators.
Framework Goal
"The Health Education Framework for California Public Schools, Kindergarten Through Grade Twelve, which is guided by the health education standards, is intended to assist elementary teachers, secondary health education teachers, administrators, school nurses, school counselors, other educators, Local Educational Agency (LEA), district personnel such as curriculum specialists, community partners such as school-based health center staff, and school board members in developing programs that educate, influence, and inspire California's children to learn, adopt, and maintain positive health practices throughout their lives."
