2 I. OVERVIEW Ninth graders participate in Health Education during the 2 nd and 4 th marking period of the school year. Health Education replaces Physical Education during this time period and students remain with their assigned Health and Physical Education teacher. Health meets three days a week and on the fourth day students are assigned to a study hall, lab science or study skills class. During the marking period of health, students are graded like other academic courses; however this marking period is incorporated into their overall Health and Physical Education cumulative grade for the year. This course has been designed to help students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively respond to emergency situations. After completing this course, students will be able to recognize and provide basic care for injuries and sudden illnesses, including an AED for victims of sudden cardiac arrest, until advanced medical personnel arrive and take over. II. RATIONALE The Health First Aid-CPR curriculum is designed around the American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED for Schools and the Community course. The purpose of this course is to help students identify and eliminate potentially hazardous conditions in their environment, recognize emergencies and make appropriate decisions in order to provide basic first aid. The American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED for Schools and the Community course teaches skills that students need to know in order to provide immediate care to a suddenly ill or injured person until more advanced medical care arrives. Students who successfully meet the requirements of the course will receive American Red Cross certification cards for the First Aid/CPR/AED for Schools and the Community course. The CPR/AED certification will be valid for 2 years and the First Aid certification will be valid for 3 years. III.
