 The Florida Standards for Health Education are based upon established health behavior theories, models, and evidence-based research, and best practices.

1. Core Concepts- Comprehend concepts related to health promotion and disease prevention to enhance health.
2. Internal and External Influence- Analyze the influence of family, peers, culture, media, technology, and other factors on health behaviors.
3. Accessing Information- Demonstrate the ability to access valid health information, products, and services to enhance health.
4. Interpersonal Communication- Demonstrate the ability to use interpersonal-communication skills to enhance health and avoid or reduce health risks.
5. Decision Making- Demonstrate the ability to use decision-making skills to enhance health.
6. Goal Setting- Demonstrate the ability to use goal-setting skills to enhance health.
7. Self-Management- Demonstrate the ability to practice advocacy, health-enhancing behaviors, and avoidance or reduction of health risks for oneself.
8. Advocacy- Demonstrate the ability to advocate for individual, peer, school, family, and community health.

The standards are structured by Standards and Benchmarks. The standard is a general statement that identifies what the student is expected to achieve. The benchmark identifies what the student will know and be able to do at the end of each grade.
