[Integration of health into the school curriculum in Botucatu, São Paulo].
This study focuses on the drafting and development of a public health program aimed at strategies to integrate health activities and the school curriculum. The program is based on three main lines of activity: full health care for schoolchildren, with special emphasis on the public school system; training of personnel in the fields of health and education by means of internships allowing participants to experience, work, and reflect critically on the activities with an interdisciplinary team; and work with teachers from the public elementary school system to implement and develop innovative measures in the fields of health and education to respond to the demand by schools and the community.
