Abstract:
Health programs were introduced into schools approximately 100 years ago. Since that time, changes in school health programs and philosophies have been influenced by trends in the fields of both education and health care. This article describes the beginnings of school health in the United States, suggests the varying roles health and education have played in the evolution of its character, outlines the philosophical and political underpinnings of the system, and identifies three perspectives on school health as it is conceptualized and practiced in the 1990s.
