This course is designed to equip students with the skills, knowledge and attitudes for an optimal quality of life and total well-being. This course is designed to be a continuation of the skills and knowledge learned at the elementary and middle school levels and provides each student with knowledge-based experience through which responsibility, decision-making and confidence are constantly nurtured. Health Education focuses on the development of six essential skills: goal setting and planning, decision-making, effective communication, self and relationship management, stress management and advocacy.
