November Lunch-N-Learn: Understanding Iowa’s Opt-Out Policy for Sex Ed: Empowering Educators and Parents

Thursday, November 7, 2024

Although Lunch-N-Learns typically occur on the first Tuesday of each month, the November 2024 session will be held on the first Thursday to better accommodate Election Day.

Location: Virtual (Join us from the comfort of your home or office!)

Cost: Free!

Dive into Iowa’s opt-out policy for sex education and learn how to effectively communicate with parents to ensure transparency and empowerment. In this engaging session, we'll explore best practices for informing parents about the sex ed curriculum, crafting clear and informative letters, and addressing any concerns with confidence. Participants will discover how to frame communication from an empowered perspective, enhancing parent-teacher collaboration and supporting student success. 

Bonus: All attendees will receive a free sample letter to send home to parents before the start of sex ed programming, helping you kickstart your communication efforts with ease.
