Agenda

March 2018:  Over the next 12 months this committee will work to provide clear and accurate information as well as resources and guidance related top the work of adopting Human Growth & Development curriculum in Deer Park Schools.

The following is taken from OSPI’s Guidelines for Sexual Health Information and Disease Prevention (co-published by the Washington State Department of Health & The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, 2005)

Achieving healthy sexuality is a developmental process from birth to adulthood; so is learning about sexuality. In the early years, the foundation for mature adult sexuality is laid with such building blocks as healthy self-esteem, positive body image, good self-care, effective communications, respect for others, caring for family and friends, and a responsibility to community. As an individual matures, other essential elements are added such as understanding body changes, sexual intimacy and commitment; knowing and using health-enhancing measures, such as health exams, abstinence and protection; and recognizing the joys and responsibilities of parenting.

The committee is tasked with selecting units and materials that allow for an accurate, factual, healthy, positive, safe, and age-appropriate approach to Human Growth & Development. In no way does the work of the committee encourage, condone, or advocate for sexual permissiveness or activity. Rather, we believe that factual information and a deeper understanding of human sexuality equips young people to make healthy choices.
