Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The main purpose of the National Health Education Standards (NHES) is to establish, promote, and support health-enhancing behaviors for students in all grade levels—from pre-Kindergarten through grade 12—rather than shifting from a skill-based focus to an information-based focus. The NHES emphasizes the development of health-related skills and the understanding of key health concepts to empower students to make healthy decisions.
