Three sons educated in CUSD. The Board is voting on Sex Ed Curriculum that meets California Standards and is compliant with California Law. A few years ago she spoke regarding SB 48 Fair Education Act which was signed into law January 1, 2012. Historically we have omitted facts and people from history because of their sexuality. Since SB 48 has passed nothing has been done to change curriculum to include new content required by the law. When she spoke in the past, she was told textbooks were not up for adoption for three years. She hopes to see more inclusivity in curriculum.

TRUSTEE COMMENTS
at 1:53:00 Trustee Reardon: Has this material actually been reviewed by the IMRC Instructional Materials Review Committee?
at 153:09 Trustee McNicholas: I am on that Committee and I have not seen it.
at 1:53:14 Trustee Reardon: Was it presented to the Committee?
at at 1:53:16 Trustee McNicholas: I believe so, but I have been derelict in my duties.
* The Board Agenda states that it was submitted to the IMRC but Staff would not confirm that.
at 1:53:27 Trustee Reardon: There are two Board Delegates (Trustee Hatton-Hodson is absent)
at 153:27 Trustee Reardon- 2nd question. Can you provide clarification on the part of the act that requires parent notification and give us some assurance that Parents will have the option to Opt Out of the Pilot.
at 153:56 Dr Holiday assures Trustees that parents will be given notice and have the ability to Opt Out.
at 154:08 Trustee Hanacek: I hope parents don't Opt Out and allow their children to be informed and educated. We have bullying everyday.
at 154:53 Trustee Reardon: The Bargain that the Legislature struck to get these materials into the classroom was that parents would have the ability to Opt Out. We must honor that commitment to parents.

THE LAW - Parental Notice |
AB 329, Weber. Pupil instruction: sexual health education.
(1) Existing law, the California Comprehensive Sexual Health and HIV/AIDS Prevention Education Act, authorizes school districts to provide comprehensive sexual health education, consisting of age-appropriate instruction, in any of kindergarten and grades 1 to 12, inclusive, and requires school districts to ensure that all pupils in grades 7 to 12, inclusive, receive HIV/AIDS prevention education, as specified.
This bill would revise and recast these provisions to, among other things, integrate the instruction of comprehensive sexual health education and HIV prevention education. The bill would rename the California Comprehensive Sexual Health and HIV/AIDS Prevention Education Act the California Healthy Youth Act. The bill would specify additional purposes of the act. The bill would instead require school districts to ensure that all pupils in grades 7 to 12, inclusive, receive comprehensive sexual health education and HIV prevention education, as specified. By imposing additional requirements on school districts, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
(2) Existing law provides that these provisions do not apply to description or illustration of human reproductive organs in certain textbooks, or to instruction or materials that discuss gender, sexual orientation, or family life and do not discuss human reproductive organs and their functions.
This bill would revise the types of textbooks, instructions, and materials for which those provisions are inapplicable.
(3) This bill would also make conforming changes.
(4) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 51938 of the Education Code proposed by AB 517 that would become operative if this bill and AB 517 are both enacted and this bill is enacted last.
(5) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.

Parents or guardians shall be notified in writing that this test, questionnaire, or survey is to be administered, given the opportunity to review the test, questionnaire, or survey if they wish, notified of their right to excuse their child from the test, questionnaire, or survey, and informed that in order to excuse their child they must state their request in writing to the school district.

(c) While comprehensive sexual health education, HIV prevention education, or anonymous, voluntary, and confidential test, questionnaire, or survey on pupil health behaviors and risks is being administered, an alternative educational activity shall be made available to pupils whose parents or guardians have requested that they not receive the instruction or participate in the test, questionnaire, or survey.
SEC. 16. Section 14.5 of this bill incorporates amendments to Section 51938 of the Education Code proposed by both this bill and Assembly Bill 517. It shall only become operative if (1) both bills are enacted and become effective on or before January 1, 2016, (2) each bill amends Section 51938 of the Education Code, and (3) this bill is enacted after Assembly Bill 517, in which case Section 14 of this bill shall not become operative.
SEC. 17.If the Commission on State Mandates determines that this act contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement to local agencies and school districts for those costs shall be made pursuant to Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of the Government Code. |
