Our Health, Values, and Ethics (HVE) program is comprehensive and progressive, helping students to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to develop and maintain healthy minds, bodies, and relationships. Health educators support and nurture physical health and mental wellness. Our sexuality education programs model and teach compassion, respect, and justice. The curriculum is holistic, moving beyond the intellect to address the attitudes, values, and feelings that students have about themselves and the world. Teachers work to attain a classroom of trust, openness, and respect. Diverse classroom activities—discussions, lectures, films, role playing, outside speakers—supplement the ongoing reading and journal writing requirements of each course. Each grade features a different theme:
9th Grade: Sexual and Reproductive Health and Healthy Relationships
10th Grade: Mental Health and Substance Abuse
11th Grade: Emotional Self-Awareness, Building Empathy, and Community Health
12th Grade: College Readiness and Independence
