Health Education

 At BHS, Health Education is an important class for our students to take.  It teaches important life skills.  This course empowers students to achieve and maintain a healthy lifestyle.  We address the six risky teen health behaviors recognized as CDC priority areas like addiction and mental health.  Lessons are presented in a safe environment where kids are centerstage. Our mantra is “Health is personal power!”

Fitness Education

Fitness Education builds a great attitude towards lifelong activity and wellness. At BHS, we feel that it is important not only to develop healthy minds, but healthy bodies as well. Having a healthy body helps kids relax and use their minds in the classroom. Being an active participant and following the rules are crucial to having a successful experience during this course.
