Health Science is a pathway in the CTE (Career and Technical Education) program for students interested in health care. Foundations of Health Science, Health Science I, and Health Science II, are courses taught at NLHS. Health Science is continued at the School of Technology with Nursing Fundamentals - a course in which you can become a Certified Nursing Assistant... All before graduating high school!

At least for now, I will be teaching your class remotely. I have an autoimmune condition called lupus that puts me at higher risk during this COVID-19 pandemic. You will have a substitute teacher present in the classroom on the days that you are there, but I will be facilitating the class remotely via Canvas, recorded lessons, classroom Zooms, etc. While this is not how I’d like to teach, it’s necessary right now with the hopes that I can be back soon. Lots of things look different at NLHS, but I know that we will all make the best of it!
All of your work will be completed online via Canvas this year. You’ll need a device and access to the internet. I do recommend you have a notebook on hand for note taking. Sharpen a pencil and grab a highlighter, and that’s all you should need!
All high school students in Lincoln County will be using Canvas. Canvas can be accessed using your Rapid Identity ID. The icon looks like this There is a tutorial on the Lincoln County Schools main page that will teach you more about Canvas. Here’s the link!

Also, you can download the Canvas app to use on other devices… available in the App Store and Google Play Store.
There is an ANNOUNCEMENT tab on the left side. It is very important that you check these announcements daily, as this is how I will give you instructions for assignments and other important information. These announcements should also come to your school email address. It’s important to use and check your school email daily, as well. You will have a daily DISCUSSION BOARD to complete on Canvas. This will let me know that you are “present” for that day. You will click on the MODULES to find the Powerpoints, videos, notes, assignments, etc. You will need to work through the Modules in order to stay
