Healthy Choices Curriculum
District Curriculum Information
Every year in the spring, our 7th-grade students are presented with the state-mandated Healthy Choices, Relationships, and Lifestyles curriculum in their Science and Physical Education (PE) classes. In the Hart District, we believe in providing our parents with the opportunity to see what will be taught and how it will be presented. Those meetings passed on February 8th but an email was sent to all 7th grade Families through Parent Square by Mrs. Bennett on Friday, February 9th with follow-up information. Please reference that email for additional information.

The teachers and District staff that designed this curriculum were sensitive to our community and the age of our students, given the subject matter. Ultimately, this curriculum opens the door for conversations between you and your child, allowing you to guide them based on your family choices and beliefs.
