Alpha Omega

Switched-On Schoolhouse High School Health is a one-semester high school elective that "carefully considers the Christian view of health. The practice of good health starts with knowledge of the physical systems of the body. When the function of the body is understood, a person recognizes the importance of good nutrition, healthy exercise, and personal hygiene. Tending and caring for your health includes more than practicing good eating habits and getting regular exercise. Your overall health is affected by your spiritual, emotional, social and environmental well-being. A responsible attitude toward living makes one avoid substances that destroy body."
