Alief health and physical education programs strive to provide quality instruction that follows national standards, fulfills state requirements, and teaches students to enjoy being active and living a healthy lifestyle. These programs should encourage children to develop lifelong health and physical activity habits and should be coordinated with all components of a coordinated school health program.

Alief ISD school programs incorporate the "New Health and PE" model. This new model is more student-friendly and helps students learn how to live healthy and physically active lives by making good choices.
