Wheeler's health and physical education curriculum is based on the Connecticut Health and Balanced Living Frameworks. These standards ensure students gain the knowledge and skills needed to live healthy, active, and emotionally balanced lives. They focus on developing personal wellness habits, understanding nutrition and physical fitness, building strong mental and emotional health, and forming positive relationships through effective communication and decision-making. Students learn how to stay safe in various environments, prevent injury, make responsible choices, and understand the impacts of substances on their health. The frameworks also include human growth and development, community health, and lifelong habits that support overall well-being.
