College dual credit during high school. Hands-on experiences in health care fields.

These are two attributes of this class, which can then lead to Health Science Education II, Fundamentals of Sports Medicine, Emergency Medical Services or Dental Careers.

This class will cover medical terminology while studying the normal structure and function of the human body. Each semester you will earn two elective credits plus one credit in anatomy/physiology—which counts toward any diploma as a science. You will do job shadowing and dissection labs. You will become a member of HOSA and exit the program with a workplace ready career portfolio.

Can you stay calm during an emergency situation? Can you control your emotions in the event of an accident? Do you enjoy problem solving? Can you see yourself in a helping profession? Could you imagine working in a dental office? If the answer to any of these questions seems to fit your goal, then you might be the perfect student to enroll in the Health Science Education Class. Health careers are the fastest growing occupational area in the economy with a tremendous demand for trained employees.
