Florida Statute 1003.42 (1)(b) has been amended to require that all materials being used for instruction relating to reproductive health and disease instruction be approved by the Florida Department of Education (FLDOE). Once the FLDOE approves the reproductive health and disease instruction resources, parents may review any of the materials being used for these lessons.
Parents/guardians have the right to opt their child out of any portion of the school district’s comprehensive health education required under 1003.42(2)(o) that relates to sex education instruction in acquired immune deficiency syndrome education or any instruction regarding sexuality.
