Reminder: Sex Education Advisory Committee to Vote on Controversial Curriculum

Proposed 5th Grade Sex Education

Dear Powerful Parents,

The Sex Education Advisory Committee (SEAC) will be meeting on Thursday, October 20th to review and vote on the the addition of curriculum. Please review the additional material that is up for a vote on Thursday.

Historically, 5th grade health has focused on the maturation process, specifically about puberty for boys and girls. These lessons are significantly more expansive. Here is the proposed material.

Language matters. Teachers are encouraged to instruct children on using gender non-specific language, reducing girls and boys to "persons with a vulva" and "persons with a penis."

Agenda item 2.04: Grade 5 (9-10 years old)

Understanding our Bodies identifies the clitoris and vulva and circumcised and uncircumcised penises. (see above graphics for 5th grade)

Agenda item 2.05: Grade 5

Body Parts worksheet

Agenda item 2.07: 9th grade

This lesson on STD prevention advertises a list of pregnancy and sexual health care providers in Las Vegas for "confidential" services including abortion.

The SEAC committee has tremendous influence on how our kids are taught about subject matter that will affect their choices and future mental and physical health. If they approve this curriculum, the trustees will approve it unless there is significant pushback from parents.

Please join us this Thursday at the Greer Education building located at 2832 E. Flamingo Rd, Las Vegas at 5:00 pm.

If you would like to testify, you may sign up when you arrive and will be given 3 minutes.
