Introduction

 Family Life Education classes address different topics in each grade level. In the younger grades, Family Life teachers professionally and factually discuss the physical changes that the children can expect as they approach puberty. In the higher grades, topics are expanded to include adolescent sexuality, decision making, and life-affecting issues common to young people.
