An Act relative to healthy youth
This bill requires schools in Massachusetts to submit biennial reports detailing their sexual health education curricula, including the number of hours taught and student enrollment figures. It also mandates that schools notify parents and guardians annually about these programs, providing them with the right to withdraw their children from the instruction and the opportunity to review course materials beforehand. The legislation further requires that these notifications be distributed in English and other commonly spoken languages to ensure accessibility for diverse families. By updating existing state laws, the bill aims to increase transparency and parental involvement in how sexual health education is delivered in public and private schools.
