The NC State Board of Education Standard Course of Study Manual specifies that the NC Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) will formally collect feedback from educators, administrators, parents, students, institutions of higher education, business/industry representatives, national organizations, and other education agencies on each draft of the revised K-12 Health and Physical Education Standards. 

This process began with a review phase, conducted through the Spring, Summer, and Fall of 2022. The review phase included gathering relevant research and analyzing data obtained through surveys, interviews, and focus groups. The data obtained was analyzed by the NCDPI Office of Learning Recovery and provided to the Health and Physical Education Standards Data Review Committees (DRCs) for further review. The DRCs completed a formal report summarizing the data, trends within the feedback, and any resulting recommendations. The report was provided to the Health and Physical Education Standards Writing Teams (SWTs) as the basis to start the revision process. 

A survey has been released to gather feedback on the first draft of the proposed 2023 K-12 Health and Physical Education Standards. The purpose of this survey is to obtain input from all stakeholders regarding the proposed K-12 Health and Physical Education Standards and to inform any additional revisions, which may include changes, clarifications, additions, deletions, or replacements to the draft standards. The surveys will close on September 18th, 2023. Thank you for your participation. Your feedback is extremely valuable to the Healthful Living standards revision process.
