Board-Approved ASD Health Standards K-12

Senate Bill 5395 went into effect in 2020 with the requirement that all schools provide comprehensive sexual health education by the 2022/23 school year.   The two stand-out points from this bill is 1) the ability for individual school districts to choose a curriculum that is the right fit for their community and 2) a parent or guardian’s right to opt their student out of any or all lessons from a sexual health unit that they feel does not align to their home values.

Wanting to get in front of this bill, Heidi Harris and Adam Ladage formed an Auburn school district health advisory committee.  This committee was made up of a wide variety of community members. The committee’s goal was to use the national and state health standards as a guide to creating a K-12 health scope and sequence that represented our community of learners.

Teachers, as you begin to prep for your sexual health unit, please make sure to send your families a letter 1-2 weeks before beginning instruction allowing them to opt their students out.  Below are useful links:
