SB 9 & HB 1525

Texas House Bill 1525 Information for Parents & Guardians

Lockhart ISD believes that student wellness and reproductive health education begins at home. Parents or legal guardians are the primary educators of their children and can be the most important influence on your child’s health decisions. The lessons your child will receive in school are designed to reinforce what a parent or legal guardian is teaching at home, not to replace it.

Texas Senate Bill 9 Information for Parents & Guardians

According to Texas Senate Bill 9, Lockhart ISD is required to provide instruction relating to the prevention of child abuse, family violence, dating violence, and sex trafficking.  With guidance from the School Health Advisory Council (SHAC), the Board of Trustees has approved the curriculum that will be used to teach each of these topics and has determined the grade level(s) that will receive instruction on each of these topics.  

As a parent/guardian, you have the right to preview the curriculum(s) at any time.  Before a student may be provided with instruction related to child abuse, family violence, dating violence, and sex trafficking, Lockhart ISD must obtain written consent from the student’s parent/guardian. 

 Please note: not all topics are covered at every grade level.
