JUST IN | Duval County Public Schools leaders have approved a refurbished set of sex education lessons for middle and high school students after hours of discussion during Tuesday’s board meeting.
The vote that occurred Tuesday night approved the planned set of reproductive health curriculum that are required by state law. The Duval County School Board had to reverse its planned curriculum in September after a new law was passed that required sex education to be taught in a certain way.
Another big topic discussed was a collection of 176 books that were removed from school district shelves because they were deemed too controversial. The decision came after the organization posted photos on Instagram that featured an adult novelty card game with drawing of male reproductive organs.
