The SHAC will assist the district in ensuring that local community values are reflected in the district's health education instruction.
The SHAC will provide an efficient, effective structure for recommending age-appropriate, sequential health education programs, and early intervention and prevention strategies that can easily be supported by local families and community stakeholders.
The SHAC assists the district in ensuring that local community values are reflected in the health education program.
