I learned a lot from doing APEX. Before I knew that you should drink water, get lots of sleep and eat healthy, etc, but I never really knew how much those this can affect your mental and physical health. Before doing APEX I didn't know what to expect, but it was a lot better then I imagined.

I learned a lot from APEX, I already knew that you should get exercise, and be healthy, but it was great to get a refresher, and to learn more about how much water you should drink, and all that! I hope APEX will stay at Davinci, I think it really helps kids learn things about their health. At first i thought Apex was going to be really stressing me out, but then we got to do all these fun things, like cooking, and learning how much water to drink every day! I do think that for APEX next year we should do more physical activity, because it didn't seem like we did to much of that this year, except on our own time. Thank you so much for creating such a fun experience for me!!! I had so much fun!

APEX has made me realize lots of things that are either not healthy to do, or that I should do more of. It has been very interesting to think about many of these topics, and I look forward to doing this next year!

My favorite thing I learned was how important a good sleep schedule is. Sleep can keep down stress and help you focus. It can even prevent weight gain! I have already implemented a good amount of sleep into my day. I will continue to do this moving forward.

My favorite would be the refined foods on cause it is a very easy topic to talk about for hours. I personally think this did not help me. I know how to take care of myself with food and exercise. Yet this could help other people just not me. It's a good program, people that eat unhealthy or are not drinking enough water could be influenced by it.

i honestly can't say i learned from apex, nor can i say i didn't. i mean, it was honestly pretty boring to me and didn't help with my life outside of school much at all.

Apex turned out ok. It wasn't as exciting as I thought it would be, but I did learn some new interesting facts about how sleep, water and the diet affected the human body. Honestly, my favorite blog entry was the Heart Health one, because I learned more information from it than from any of the others. All in all though, apex didn't really help make me a healthier, less stressful person, but I am willing to do it again, and learn more about human health next year.

My favorite thing that Iearned in apex this year was the different food that i could cook. My family has added many of the things that I have learned to our everyday life. I have also been taking more walks and eating less junk or snack food. We will most likely continue to use a lot of what I learned in our life.

I've learned so much from Apex, that will help me so much in the future. One of my favorite things was the meal cooking assingment. It led to a lot of fun and I became a better cook. I think I'll probably learned the most from all the sleep stuff we did, especially the video watching one. Apex has helped me so much and I'm really disapointed that it's not going to be here next year.

I liked cooking already, so this is naturally the assignment I liked because it helped me learn new recipes. It also helped me use a wider range of ingredients. I used a smoothie recipe and a guacamole recipe I have never tried before. Both me and my family liked them. I plan to make more recipes just like this.

Apex has taught me a lot of good lessons and healthy habits. I wasn't sure what the year was going to be like, but I can say its been mostly positive. Apex has reinforced and expanded my thinking around physical and mental health.

Apex has had a pretty big impact on me. While I was aware that eating healthy and drinking water was important, I never thought about how much it factors into a person's mental health. I have changed some of my physical and dietary routines and I think that has had an impact on the school work and my martial arts.

I think that APEX was useful, but it didn't help me that much. I am already in good shape because I am very active at recess and I'm on a track team. I do track about 3 days a week. I eat healthy and I don't have too much junk food or anything. I will keep these lessons in mind for the future, when I am living alone in my 20s. I tend to play a lot of video games and I will think back to my APEX lessons and change my lifestyle if needed.

I learned alot from apex like, healthy foods, how good fresh air is for you, the importance of drinking water, and how to cook your own healthy meal. My favorite of all of these was the cooking one because I could cook somthing I really liked and see how to make it. Cooking is also just a great skill in general so I was eager to learn more about it.

APEX was a really great experience. It taught me how to live healthier and make better choices. I really liked a lot of the assignments and blog entries but I have to say that my favorite thing was learning about the importance of water. APEX had a very positive impact on not only my physical well being but also my mental well being. I am very sad i won't be able to take APEX next year.

I think that APEX was a great opportunity to learn new facts about staying healthy and happy. It makes you think twice before making decisions and has led me to make new discoveries about the food I eat and how important it is to get good exercise.I make healthier habits now and feel a lot better so that's a plus.I feel bad that next year there is required dance, even though I won't be here, but I know a lot of great artists who probably wouldn't have even come here if they had known that they had to do dance. Anyways, I liked the blogs, and activities to try out and I have learned some new recipes to use in the future, so thanks.

I feel like since this is my second year of apex, I maybe didn't learn as much as some people would have in their first year since all of the assignments were the same. However, I did learn a lot about my own body and my physical health and the type of things that I can do for myself to feel good. I learned that as much as I hate mornings, rising early helps me feel better throughout the day. I also learned that cardio wakes me up and makes me more focused afterward. I learned what kinds of foods I can eat to be healthy and still feel satisfied, and I learned that yoga is not for me.

In all honesty, I didn't learn very much from Apex. The dinner prompts were nice and all, but I would've had to do exercise anyway just to get home. However, it was great having two year-long electives. I would definitely do this again next year... IF APEX WAS STILL AROUND FOR ME TO DO IT. BOO SCHOOLBOARD.

I think my favorite thing about this class was the diet against refined foods, as well as the more strict sleep schedule. I kind of stuck with those things, and am now feeling happier because of it. Overall, this has been a really great experience, just like all of da Vinci, and I'll be kind of sad to leave for high school.

I have also learned how to make some healthy meals, and some great exercises. Apex has been amazing this year and I was so happy I got the oppurtunity to be able to do two art classes that weren't dance.

Because the course has the same assignments as last year I didn't learn anything new, but it gave me some good reminders on things that I had stopped doing. For example I forgot just how fun it is to cook dinner for my family. another thing this reminded me about is how important sleep is. I enjoyed this course more this year. Now I have looked back on my old work and I think I did better this year than last.

At the beginning of the year, I was dreading APEX because I thought it would just be extra work on top of everything else. However, the "work" I was doing was much like taking a break and treating my mind and body. I got exercise, cooked delicious, healthy meals, and got to spend time with my family while learning about self-care. Thank you for giving me this opportunity!

I had a good time doing apex and created some good excersizing habits. I also started making food for my family and enjoyed doing that. In the future I hooe to eat healthier and excersize more and I feel like doing apex helped me with that. I also planned excersize workouts to do this summer to get started. Thank you for helping me make habits.
