School Health Education
Overview
School health educators help students develop healthy lifestyles.
Health teachers develop programs that educate students about physical, mental, social, environmental, and emotional health. They empower students to make healthy decisions throughout their lives.
In addition to schools, health educators work in health care, communities, businesses, and universities.
