Health education provides students with the knowledge necessary to achieve an optimum level of health. Students study life skills, human growth and development, wellness, the health triangle, and drug education.
Through health education, students will know that total health includes all of a person's emotional, intellectual, physical and social growth and development. Students will come to understand the rights and responsibilities of each individual and community as it relates to health, and that an individual can prevent health problems by practicing positive health behaviors.
