Board adopts K-12 health enhancement curriculum after 30-day public posting with no public comments
Summary
Trustees approved the revised K-12 health enhancement curriculum, including human sexuality supplements, following a public posting and recommendation from staff.
Trustees unanimously adopted the district's K-12 health enhancement curriculum, including supplemental material on human sexuality, after staff reported the material had been posted for more than 30 days with no public comment.
Jenna Briggs presented the curriculum recommendation, saying the district had completed a K-12 review and posted materials for public review. "We've posted the materials online and had the materials available to the public and we've been through over 30 days of review on them with no public comment," Briggs said. She asked the board to adopt the curriculum and begin classroom use.
Vote: motion moved by Trustee Wake, second by Trustee Davies; unanimous approval by trustees present.
Why it matters: health curricula and supplemental materials on human sexuality are subject to statutory notice and transparency requirements; adoption authorizes classroom use beginning in the new school year.
Ending: with the vote the curriculum was approved and trustees had no further comment on the item as recorded.
