[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honors Health B, which my son is taking is an absolute mess. The class has nothing to do with health and has just devolved into just general life skills. So they're learning about personal finance, what credit cards are, how to fill out a W-2, etc.

I mean, I appreciate that they're learning useful, practical things like that, but that's not what we added on an extra semester of health class for.[/quote]

Interesting.  My son just finished up Honors Health B at Magruder, and I thought the curriculum was good. And health related.

Are they doing gender theory or was that not put in the curriculum yet?[/quote]

Not in there. [/quote]
Thank goodness.  My son is taking it this year, so hopefully it won't be until he's done with it.[/quote]
Worried he might learn something?  :shock: [/quote]
