Sex Ed Maybe?
Parents and Doctors Sue Clovis Unified School District Over Sex
Education
The lawsuit charges that the district is violating California law and
putting teens health at risk by teaching students misinformation and
denying them critical instruction about condoms and contraception.
The textbook that Clovis Unified uses for high school sex education
does not mention condoms at all, even in chapters about HIV/AIDS and
on preventing STDs and unintended pregnancy. Instead, for example,
the textbook lists that the ways to prevent STDs are to respect yourself,
get plenty of rest, go out as a group and practice abstinence.
A 2007 congressionally mandated report found that abstinence-only
instruction did nothing to reduce teen sexual activity. The report also
found that teens who received abstinence-only instruction were less
likely to believe that condoms are effective in preventing STDs than
students who had no sex education at all.
Did they win?

A 2011 report by the University of California San Francisco showed

that although Californias public schools have made great strides in
the quality of sexuality education and HIV/AIDS prevention, many
districts still fail to provide students with the complete, accurate
information that they need and that the law requires.
