Question 1

What standards does this curriculum follow?

Accepted Answer

Our curriculum aligns with the National Health Education Standards (NHES) to ensure consistency and quality in health education across all states.

Question 2

Is the Full-Year Curriculum package too much for a semester-long course?

Accepted Answer

No. Many schools run health classes as a semester course, meeting daily, while others meet every other day or a few times a week for a full year. The curriculum is designed to cover the same total seat time, making it suitable for both formats.

Question 3

What are your qualifications?

Accepted Answer

I hold a B.S. in Health Education and an M.A. in Literacy and am a certified health educator. With experience teaching grades 5-12 in diverse school settings across New York State, I bring 20 years of expertise and real-world classroom experience to Health 101's downloadable lessons and published works.

Question 4

You say this curriculum is skills-based. What does that mean?

Accepted Answer

Skills-based health education goes beyond memorizing facts. It focuses on developing essential health skills—such as decision-making, communication, goal-setting, and self-management—so students can apply their knowledge to real-life situations and make healthy choices beyond the classroom.

Question 5

Will my district pay for this?

Accepted Answer

Many districts allocate funding for health curriculum resources. We recommend checking with your department chair, curriculum coordinator, or purchasing office to see if funds are available. 
We also provide invoices and purchase order options for school purchases when needed.

Here is a helpful overview to share with your department or administration.

Question 6

Can I assign any of this digitally to my students?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Although everything is typically printed and used in a hard copy version with classes, our curriculum includes digital-friendly versions that can be assigned electronically, making it easy to integrate into your lesson plans.

Question 7

Can I use this with my school's online platform?

Accepted Answer

Most likely, yes! Our materials are provided in formats that work with Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology, and other LMS platforms.

Question 8

Can I share this with other teachers in my building?

Accepted Answer

Each purchase is for a single teacher license, meaning only the purchasing teacher can use it. If additional teachers in your building would like access, we offer discounted multi-teacher licenses to ensure compliance while making the curriculum accessible to your team. Fill out the contact form & we will get back to you with a discount code to share.
