Our health education is about empowering you to engage in healthy lifestyles.
You’ll learn in a respectful environment to examine your attitudes, and develop the skills for healthy decision-making to reach your highest potential as productive, responsible citizens.
In trusting and respectful environments, we give you opportunities to examine your values and attitudes, and develop critical thinking, decision-making, self-advocacy and interpersonal skills.
Our curriculum is designed to be developmentally appropriate for each grade level, and health education is required of our students for each year they attend Exeter. Electives are also available.
