Health Education Curriculum & Parental Opt-Out for Human Sexuality Instruction
Your child will be enrolled in a Health Education course this year, which will likely include, at some point, instruction concerning human sexuality. The White Oak School follows the state mandated Comprehensive Health and Physical Education Curriculum Framework. Material covered will be purely of a scientific, educational nature and will not advance any agenda or religious view. Parents and guardians have a complete right to excuse their child from such instruction, under Massachusetts General Laws. If you would like to discuss this curriculum with me, the PE Teacher, the Nurse or if you would like to excuse your child from this instruction, please let me know. There is absolutely no penalty for any child who does not take part in this instruction, and alternate curricular material will be provided in such case.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Jody M. Michalski
Head of School
