Health Education Graduation Requirements

Grade 10

 Health and Wellness, an introduction to human sexuality, presents to students factual knowledge, opportunities to develop communication skills, practice in decision-making, goal setting and conflict management, and creates awareness of the contemporary social issues facing men and women today. This course will help students, who are confronted with a quickly changing and varied society, learn how to direct their own lives in a way which is consistent with family and personal values. State-mandated HIV/AIDS Education is also a part of this program. Students who do not wish to cover issues related to human sexuality topics will be given an alternate learning experience.
