This year I am serving in the Americorps as a Health
Educator at Ryerson Elementary, on the west side of Chicago
teaching k-8th. To assist you in teaching health classes
there are various non-profit organization (Erie Family who I
am with for one, ALA, UpTown Health Clinic, CAPS "keeping it
real" gang & violence prevention) that have educators that
you can arrange to come and teach courses to you school. If
you are interested in learning more about which programs are
offered or perhaps lessons that I have used, post-back. I
would love to try and help you in anyway that you can.
