HEALTH EDUCATION II (607801) 

Length: Semester Available for: 10-12 grades      

Health education provides opportunities for students to develop knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for practicing lifelong, health-enhancing behaviors. The Health II Curriculum focuses on what students can do for themselves to meet the objectives of the six state core standards and illustrates the impact their attitudes and behaviors have on the world around them. The curriculum builds on the foundation established in Health I with advanced, age-appropriate focus. Students will learn that they are responsible for their personal well-being and that building a solid foundation of health literacy and decision-making skills can contribute to positive health choices throughout life. In addition, they will explore the impact their personal health has on society as a whole.
