HIV/AIDS Prevention Education

Washington State requires school districts to offer yearly instruction to students in grades 5 through 12 about the life-threatening dangers of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, its spread, and its prevention in accordance with the AIDS Omnibus Act. OSPI has informed school districts through guidance that this continues to be true during this period of remote learning. Please use the resources below to support your child in receiving this critical information.
