Idaho K–6 health standards

Idaho writes its own health standards. They are published as Idaho Content Standards Health, adopted 2022 and are not a version of a national framework. Every one is matched to a national standard.

Acquired from SDE's adopted document because CSP carries the superseded 2010 text under identical numbering. Grade band is read from Idaho's own code. Re-run the extractor after any re-fetch.
