Are HSTE teachers, supposed to cover every HSTE TEKS? What about the Health TEKS?
Yes, effective September 2003, districts must cover all the TEKS in all courses (including enrichment). When students take either Intro to HSTE (for 1 full credit), HSTE I, or HSTE II, the student satisfies their Health graduation requirement (they do not get 1/2 credit for Health). All the TEKS for Health must be covered. If you use the curriculum materials on the CD-ROM or the web site for HSTE I, then you will be covering all the Health TEKS as well as the HSTE TEKS. http:// www.texashste.com Look under course guides, then HSTE I and you will see all the units of study and TEKS for Health and HSTE identified.
