Erie High School – Nutrition & Wellness

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

The purpose of the course is to develop lifelong, healthy individuals with an understanding and academic knowledge of wellness as a lifestyle, exercise and fitness, nutrition, and consumer products and services. Emphasis is placed on implementing healthy nutritional choices, developing a fitness / wellness plan, integrating science principles as related to nutrition and fitness, and practicing wise consumer decisions. We will be active through light exercise or mindfulness activities weekly. There is no cooking in this class. Being a member of an FCS class also allows working students to get credit for a job in the food industry (restaurants, fast food, grocery stores, etc.). See the description for CTE Work Study below.
