Course Description

This semester-long course encourages students to establish a biblical view of the body, health, and self-image. Students investigate the physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects of topics such as nutrition, overall health, body image, social health, stress, and appropriate use of social media. Students explore the normal functioning of major body systems and the impact of disease on those systems. Through safety and first aid training, students are exposed to the skills and techniques of CPR and the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). While HPEB100 is designed for ninth-grade students, the course can be taken by any high school student.
