Sexual Health and Safety

CPS Sexual Health Education

This school year, your child will receive Sexual Health Education as required by the CPS Sexual Health Education Policy. The purpose of this education is to build a foundation of knowledge and skills for all students so that they can make the right choices for themselves now and in the future. This curriculum will also give our students important tools to recognize and report inappropriate behavior in order to keep them safe.

  • The lessons, including brief descriptions, for each grade can be found in the Scope and Sequence.  
  • More details about what your child will learn can be found under “Parent/Guardian Resources” on the CPS website.
  • At Decatur we will teach the curriculum between April 2-11. 

In alignment with Illinois law, “No student shall be required to take or participate in any class or course in comprehensive personal health and safety and comprehensive sexual health education. A student's parent or guardian may opt the student out [of this education] by submitting the request in writing.” (105 ILCS 110/3). No student with a written parental objection will be penalized for refusal to participate in any such course.

  • If you would like to have your child excused from participation in one, some, or all lessons outlined above, please let your homeroom teacher know in writing.
  • If you would like to have your child participate in this education, no further action is required.
Thank You,
Ms. Manon
