Many schools will develop health promotion and disease prevention programs during this decade. Because of the rapidly changing nature of these programs, it is helpful to consider the major issues that will have an impact on health promotion program development. These issues include: (1) increased wellness focus; (2) improved database for planning; (3) computerized assessment procedures; (4) prioritized market segments; (5) standardization of service protocols; (6) confluent appraoches; (7) role delination for the school health team; (8) staff development programs; and (9) program evaluation.
