Health
Education is a required course in which students learn to accept
responsibility for personal health decisions and practices, and work
with others to support and maintain a healthful society. Students
study topics on personal health, safety, and accidents, substance
use and abuse, emotional and mental health, nutrition, physical
fitness, family health, human growth/sexuality, and development and
disease prevention and control. This version of the required Health
Education course includes a short unit of approximately 3 days which
expands the regular study of human sexuality to include information
about family planning and contraception set within a framework of
personal responsibility, self-respect, and the freedom to say no.
Parents who do not want their children to receive instruction in
this aspect of human sexuality should not approve enrollment in this
version of Health Education.
