Health Nutrition Arts and Science
WELCOME TO HEALTH, NUTRITION ARTS & SCIENCES WE ARE LOCATED IN ROOM 220A Our vision of this program is to create a family-like atmosphere, integrating academic and health, nutrition, arts and sciences (HNAS) career education, while establishing and maintaining strong business partnerships. We value an education in which every student will develop positive character traits, becoming responsible and respectful citizens, critical thinkers, effective communicators, and lifelong community contributors striving for academic and “real-world” success. Using content standards and pacing plans, HNAS teachers will plan specific integrated lessons. Each of the academic classes will provide a rigorous curriculum, using the career content as a theme and achieving authenticity. Our students will be able to perform real-world tasks that demonstrate meaningful application of the essential knowledge and skills they have learned in our SLC. Our beliefs as a school are to create an environment that will build student self-esteem and skills using various strategies in and out of the classroom. Students will have multiple options upon graduation including further culinary training, direct entry into career-related work and higher education. They will have professional-level technical proficiency, an understanding of nutrition and a broad-based academic foundation. We believe that students should be held to high standards both academically and morally at all times, to ensure academic achievement. For more information, see Mr. Mendizza in room 223.
