    Welcome to Mr. Mahoney's ninth grade health class. This course will cover a variety of health topics such as decision making, dating and relationships, sexual myths, male and female reproductive systems, abstinence, contraception, and sexually transmitted diseases.  This course will focus on the importance of communication, as well as the mental and emotional changes that occur during puberty. Students are encouraged to discuss the above topics with their parents and solicit their thoughts and feelings towards the growing process.
