That would be why I opted both of my kids out of Family Life Education from K-10th

How did you do that? I thought Sex Ed. was mandatory in all public schools.

Something called the “hatch” amendment. Basically a note given to the school at the beginning of the year that says your child will not participate in anything with same sex or sexually oriented content. look it up online...it’s a bit more detailed but along those lines.

In Virginia, parents must give their okay for their children to participate in FLE. You can opt your child out of parts or all of it. My husband and I chose to opt both our girls out of the program completely in K-10th (The program concludes in the 10th grade year) We figured if they never started the program in K, we would not have to make a decision as to when to stop it. They just didn't do it, and we took care of their family needs at the home level.

I pinged two other Virginia parents who should have similar knowledge
