BK students have been blessed with one body, mind, and spirit.  The Health curriculum will provide practical knowledge that will assist students in making healthy lifestyle choices to maximize continuing wellness throughout life, mentally, socially and physically. Goal setting and decision making strategies will be incorporated in units discussing fitness, nutrition, healthy relationships (both interpersonal and intrapersonal), social development, and acceptance of self and others. Students will examine several of the body systems by identifying anatomy of the body as well as physiological function of musculoskeletal, endocrine, cardio respiratory, immune, digestive, excretory systems and human reproductive systems.   Substance use, misuse and abuse will be examined within the realm of personal decision making as well as the legal aspects of risk behaviors.  Discussion of the legal aspects of substance use, possession, search and seizure, digital citizenship and internet safety will be facilitated by law enforcement officers.
