NOTE: This High School Health program is not meant to be purchased along with the Middle/Jr. High School Health program for use in the same school district since there is some lesson overlap.

      ★ We offer two types of licenses for Health Education Today: the "Transferable License" and the "Single User Non-Transferable License."

       

      ★ This "Single User Non-Transferable License" is designed for individual use by one teacher only and is strictly non-transferable. It cannot be shared or passed on to other teachers. This license model is commonly purchased by teachers for their personal use, guaranteeing that each educator has their own license for accessing the curriculum.

       

      ★ On the other hand, our "Transferable License" product is intended to be assigned to one teacher at a time, but it is transferable to accommodate yearly staff changes. In situations involving teacher turnover, extended leave, or other special cases, this license can be reassigned to another teacher. The flexibility of this license ensures that the curriculum remains accessible even amid staffing fluctuations.

      I purchased the bundle two years ago, and have extensively utilized it to supplement both in-class and distance learning for the past two years. I highly recommend this curriculum. My students are currently working on the Mental Disorders/Illnesses/Disabilities Research Project. A substitute teacher for my class remarked, "I wish that I had learned about conflict resolution when I was in high school!"
