Age and developmentally appropriate curricula lessons have been developed to address the Florida Sunshine State Standards and are aimed at providing students with information and skills to help them make healthy and responsible choices. Throughout all lessons, abstinence from sexual activity outside of marriage is taught as the expected standard for school-age students.

Parents are encouraged to review the instructional materials identified for use in the Health Education curricula. In accordance with Florida Statutes and Duval County School Board policy, parents may exempt their child from the instructional lessons on reproductive health and HIV/AIDS. Topics of other curricula lessons include lessons on personal health; family life; community health; consumer health; environmental health; injury prevention and safety, including first aid and CPR; nutrition; prevention and control of disease, including HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections; marriage and relationship skill-based education; parenting skills; breast cancer detection/self exams; substance use and abuse; mental and emotional health; and consequences of teenage pregnancy.
