Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D, E
School health services goals and objectives vary from state to state, community to community, and school to school. These differences reflect wide variations in state regulation, student needs, community resources, funding sources, and school leadership preferences. The national statistics on health problems and teacher preferences do not create differences among schools in regards to health services that are available.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, D, E
Disasters are identified as natural, man-made, or a combination of both. A NA-TECH disaster is a natural disaster that creates or results in a widespread technological problem. Examples of NA-TECH disasters would include whole neighborhoods being buried by mudslides, earthquakes causing structural collapse of roadways or bridges, river flooding resulting in an overflow of the sewage plant and contaminated drinking water, and a tsunami washing out all of the power and telephone lines. People stampeding out of a crowded arena does not involve a disaster that results in a widespread technological problem, nor does a volcanic eruption that makes it hard to breathe.
