Hello [School Board Member Name],
​
I’m [Your Name], a parent of a student in the [School District Name] School District. Today, I’m reaching out to ask a couple of questions about sex education policies and practices in our community.
​
What types of sex education topics and lessons are covered in our schools? How are the teachers trained and supported in teaching this content in the classroom? Do you support expanding our sex education curriculum to be as accurate, inclusive, and accessible to all students as possible?

As a parent in this community, I care deeply that our kids are getting sex and relationship health education that sets them up to make healthy decisions for themselves. Here is a good resource on the impact of high quality sex education.
​
Honest Sex Ed Minnesota is a nonprofit that is focused on supporting schools in meeting their communities’ sex education needs and would be a great resource for the school board, school administration, and teachers.
​
Looking forward to hearing your answers and thoughts,
[Your Name]
