Jr/Sr Health & Fitness

 

The Junior/Senior Health & Fitness Program consists of one required quarter-long courses: Life Skills and three activity quarter-long courses.  Each quarter-long course meets two times a week.  During quarter 1 students participate in a Muscular Fitness Unit.  During quarter 2 students participate a health unit called "Life Skills".   In the Life Skills unit, students consider many health topics, including human sexuality, substance use and abuse,sexual harassment, and dating and domestic violence. The classes are discussion-based and students explore different topics by means of guest speakers, panel discussions, in-class activities and a brief research project. Evaluation for all Junior Program courses is based on class participation, attendance, effort, preparedness, homework, written assignments and tests. Students receive a letter grade.

Note: Students may participate as a Junior or Senior depending upon scheduling limitations. All Juniors who are enrolled in the Rivers and Revolutions program will be scheduled for H&F in the opposing semester and be enrolled during the following school year for one semester.
