Parents not wanting their student to participate in Sex education will be able to exempt their student from this instruction. Written permission must be returned to watch videos beyond rated G.
This course will involve a period of classroom health instruction followed by physical activity. This requires dressing out for physical activities. Almost All school supplies will be provided (execpt: 1/2 inch Binder, and must dress out for physical activity).
