California Healthy Youth Act (CHYA)

  • Dear CVUSD Families,

    Following an extensive review process last school year that included stakeholder engagement meetings and public discussion at Board of Education meetings, CVUSD adopted new Comprehensive Sexual Health & HIV/AIDS instruction materials for 7th and 9th grade to be in compliance with the California Healthy Youth Act (2016). Here is the timeline for when the new student materials will be available:

    • High school 9th grade student materials are now available to examine here. Only these specific handouts, presentations, and activities will be presented to students.
    • Middle school instruction for 7th grade students will occur in Spring 2022.
    • Middle school 7th grade student materials are now available to examine here. Only these specific handouts, presentations, and activities will be presented to students.
    • Materials intended for students with an IEP who access a Specialized Program are now available to examine here (Middle School) and here (High School). Only these specific handouts, presentations, and activities will be presented to students.

    As required by law, prior to delivering the instruction to students, parents/guardians will be notified by school site staff and provided an opportunity to have their child “opt-out” of receiving the instruction, either in whole or for portions of the materials.
