Overview
Health:
Grade 6 - Students participate in the Calmer Choice Mindful Awareness curriculum. Other objectives of the Health curriculum include self-esteem, body systems, and drug and alcohol prevention.
Grade 7 & 8 - This curriculum covers three areas of personal health - physical, emotional, and social well- being. A major objective is for students to understand that these three areas are interconnected in achieving overall wellness. Classes are discussion-based with various activities, including role play and debate. We strive to make the health classroom a place where students feel safe in talking and learning about their own personal health.
​
Physical Education:
All Grades- Connecting with the health class, the Physical Education program focuses on teamwork (social well-being), supportive play (emotional health), fitness (physical health) and fun (all three).
