Description
ALABAMA HIV SCHOOL HEALTH POLICIES: RELATING CONTENT STANDARDS TO VITAL STATISTICS. Dr. Gayle L. Bush, PhD, Troy University; Terry Watkins, RN, FNP Candidate, Troy University; Vernon Shank, MS Candidate, Troy, AL 36082. According to the CDC, HIV-related education and infection control policies have been established, curriculum guidelines developed, and educators trained in the delivery of effective HIV prevention education. Based on a recent study of school districts nationwide, 67% required HIV education for students and 90% provided teacher preparation in the area of HIV education. The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey (grades 9-12) of 2005 reports that prevalence of having been taught in school about AIDS or HIV infection ranged from 77.9% to 93.6% across state surveys (median: 88.4%). The Alabama Course of Study Health Education provides the course requirements, standards, and curriculum for HIV education, which is to occur in grades K-12. State Code 16-40 A-2 (2003) specifies that "any program or curriculum in the public schools in Alabama that includes sex education or the human reproductive process shall, as a minimum, include and emphasize" abstinence as the only method that will prevent HIV, STD, and pregnancy. According to the CDC recommendations, key concepts that that should be included in the comprehensive sex and HIV education program will be discussed. This session will focus on helping educators understand what is required to teach at certain grade levels, and provide tips and strategies for teaching this important health issue in the K-12 environment.
