Health and Physical Education
Health
Comprehensive health education is part of an integrated curriculum in grades pre-kindergarten through eight. The curriculum includes information on safety, injury prevention, mental and emotional health, growth and development, family life, environmental health, consumer health, personal health and hygiene, substance abuse prevention, disease prevention and control, nutrition, and emergency care.
High School Physical Education (.5 credit) and Personal Fitness (.5 credit) are required for high school graduation. Marching Band, Dance and ROTC students may waive the .5 Physical Education credit but must still complete the .5 Personal Fitness course. Student athletes may waive the .5 Physical Education and .5 Personal Fitness for completing 2 seasons or more of an interscholastic sport at the Varsity or Junior Varsity level.
