id=10872 Last updated on 05/26/04 Contact Us with any policy updates or revisions WEST VIRGINIA Printable PDF file format CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION Health Education West Virginia State Board of Education Policy (2003) requires instruction in health education for students by level, K-2, 3-4, and 5-8, but does not specify amounts of instruction. The policy also requires students to complete 1 unit in health education in order to graduate from high school. Policy , Health Content Standards and Objectives for West Virginia Schools, (2003) provides a suggested curriculum framework that includes the topics of nutrition, physical activity, tobacco use, drug and alcohol use, injury, and sexual activity. Students in West Virginia are not required to pass a statewide exam covering health education topics at any point in grades K-12.

Background The proliferation of competitive foods has raised concern among public health officials, parents, teachers, and others since many of these foods can undermine children's diets and health. National studies have found that 78 percent of high schools, 65 percent of middle schools, and 31 percent of elementary schools offered foods a la carte. A la carte items are foods sold individually by school food service during meal times rather than as part of a complete National School Lunch Program meal. A recent California study found that in 71 percent of surveyed school districts, a la carte items accounted for up to 70 percent of all food sales at schools, with popular items including fast foods such as pizza, cookies, and chips. Unlike the National School Lunch Program, these foods are not required to meet any nutritional standards. The high presence of fast foods as a la carte items is a concern, as they tend to be of limited nutritional value and contain high levels of fat, salt, and sugar.
