In this course, students will learn facts about sex education
and be provided a safe space to ask appropriate questions instead of acting off of
hearsay from friends or media. This course will explore the topic of sexuality and
sex education, touching on topics including but not limited to, sexual
development, sexual and reproductive health, interpersonal relationships,
affection, intimacy, and gender roles. Physical, mental-emotional, and social
aspects of sexuality will be addressed including sexual communication,
relationships, safer sex practices and decision making. This course will also teach
scholars about consent in relation to sexual experiences. Parental consent is
required before taking this class and it will only be offered in the Gold and
Platinum levels.
