  • Identifying reliable sources of health information and becoming savvy consumers
  • Strengthening decision making skills as they identify healthy solutions in challenging situations
  • Sharpening communication skills as they share health knowledge, engage in advocacy, and manage interpersonal conflicts
  • Analyzing the influences of family, peers, media, and technology on their health and wellness
Students will also learn to set goals, establish healthy living plans, advocate for healthy living at home and in their communities, and discern how health and technology intersect.
