Welcome to your High School Health Education experience! I am so excited for all that we will explore together in the next few months. My class may run a bit different than what you are used to, and there is a reason for that. Establishing and maintaining health and wellness cannot happen by memorizing content alone. It is about accessing valid and reliable information, analyzing that information in terms of your own values and goals, identifying what to implement, and having the skills and support to practice what we know we should do.
Knowing is half the battle; doing is the more important half. While you receive numeric grades based on completion of tasks, the majority of our time together will not focus on this. My goal is to create a safe environment that encourages open discussion about real issues that impact our health and well-being. As such, it is imperative that students follow through with certain behavioral expectations. Our world in A119 must be one in which everyone keeps an open mind, demonstrates respect for themselves and others, listens and responds thoughtfully and considerately, apologizes when we make mistakes, forgives, and, ultimately, aims to improve ourselves each and every day. I hold myself to these standards as well as each of my students. I welcome you, students and parents, to reach out should you ever have a question or concern. |
