Personal Growth

 

This class meets once a week and is the equivalent to health and sex education. Depending on the nature of the lesson, female and male instructors teach the entire student body or separate gender groups.

Instructors work hard to create a safe and confidential space for students to learn about themselves and their bodies. Topics covered include female and male anatomy and reproductive cycles, sexually transmitted disease identification and prevention, contraception, gender identity and sexual orientation, body image and self-esteem, peer pressure and drug and alcohol awareness, and personal hygiene.
