Policy 2340F - Parental Opt-Out Form for Sex Education

Parental Opt-Out Form for Sex Education

I, ____________________________, parent/guardian of ______________________________________, request that my child be removed from class and/or student activities when planned instruction is given in the subject of sex education.

I understand a philosophy of abstinence is a part of and the underlying principal in all sex education instruction. Because this alone may not prevent pregnancies and sexually transmitted disease, the Board allows for instruction in sex education including AIDS awareness, sexually transmitted diseases, birth control, and general human sexuality. In all cases the known facts will be taught, not the opinions or moral judgments of the instructor. This does not preclude giving impartial view points on both sides of issues such as the right to an abortion or on the use of birth control methods.
