Health

What is Health education?

Health is a one-semester course.

Health education encourages the development of physical, mental, social, and emotional health. The emphasis is on developing personal health goals and a general understanding of the skills needed to live a healthy lifestyle. Health topics include alcohol and tobacco, mental, emotional, family & social health, communicable & chronic disease, nutrition & fitness, community, consumer & environmental health, personal health & hygiene, human growth and development, and safety & first aid.


What do students need for class?

The course will be presented through Canvas, a centralized learning management system. Students can access Canvas in ClassLink. Students will need to bring a pen, chromebook, and earbuds or headphones – If you already own a pair then you may bring them. They will NOT be stored in the classroom. You will need to store them in your backpack and bring them to class each day.
