The classroom teacher is always the best source of information regarding questions and concerns about curriculum, instruction, and general student learning. For concerns beyond the scope of your child's teacher, please contact the supervisor for K-5 Health: Mr. Thomas Misiak

The K-5 Health Program is supported by resources from The Great Body Shop. Students in every grade complete 10 units annually. The topics are spiraling and core concepts are revisited and reinforced annually.
At the onset of each school year, the classroom teachers provide a form letter with health curriculum information. An aspect of this introductory letter includes information on requesting an alternative health lesson for your child
