7th Grade Health Class
The state of Kansas requires that public schools teach a unit on sexual health and reproduction. The Eudora curriculum includes this component according to the Kansas state standards.
The state’s health education standards are divided into three sections of grade levels: K-4, 5-8 and 9-12. Wellness education, including such topics as nutrition, exercise and healthy living, are taught at all levels in our schools. Human sexuality and reproductive health do not enter our district’s curriculum until fifth grade and are specifically identified in fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth grades.
Your student will be starting this human sexuality unit in health class in two weeks. Students will receive information to take home about the human sexuality curriculum as well as an opt-out letter on February 8th. If you did not receive these items or would like more information, please call or email your student’s health teacher.
State law requires that school districts notify parents of their right to opt their student out of the unit on sexuality and reproduction. It is the sole responsibility of a student’s parent or guardian to complete and return this form if it is desired that the student not participate in this unit.

Students who are opted out of the reproductive education unit will not attend class sessions planned for the unit on human sexuality and reproductive health. These students will be given alternate assignments by their health teacher to complete in an independent-study format.

"From the Principal"
Welcome back! It is always exciting to get back to school after a long break. I'm happy to say our students or teachers did not skip a beat. They all are very focused to the goal of education. I’m really proud of how everyone has settled into this second semester.
As you are aware, schools have had to focus on state testing in the third quarter of school, we are no different. Our state testing will begin very soon and will last until first of April. We ask you help us in this effort in getting your children ready for each day with a good breakfast and have them at school for the proper instruction needed. We will do our best to teach them the skills necessary to score at the proficient level on all state assessments.
With some of the changes we have made this school year, we all have high expectations for our students. Only time will tell!
