The Sexual Health and Responsibility Education Unit will be taught December 2–13, 2024 by the PE department to students currently enrolled in PE.
A general overview and outline of the district’s age appropriate, abstinence-based curriculum can be viewed on the GCS Health & PE webpage. Complete details, including the slide presentation and videos, can be previewed at the school any time during the school day, if you would like to view it.
If you do not want your child to participate in the sexual health & responsibility unit or a specific portion of the unit, you must bring the signed exemption form to the front office in person. Students are not permitted to submit the exemption forms to their teacher. By School Board Policy and SC Comprehensive Health Education Law, students who exempt Sexual Health and Responsibility Education will be required to complete other health-related, self-study lessons.
