New York State requires districts to provide health education at all levels. Our K-6 health teacher, classroom teachers, school counselors, and DARE Officers provide lessons from our curriculum in the areas including safety, nutrition, body systems, family life education, HIV/AIDS awareness and other related instruction. Parents will be notified prior to the fifth and sixth grade family life and HIV/AIDS awareness lessons. Parents may choose to opt children out of family life lessons but not HIV/AIDS awareness.
