Parent & Guardian Information
Each school year, your child will receive human trafficking awareness education. Georgia's Senate Bill 287 mandates that all students in grades 6 to 12 receive instruction concerning trafficking prevention and awareness.
Students in grades six to nine will receive the human trafficking awareness lesson as part of their sex education curriculum. Students in grades 10 to 12 will receive a separate human trafficking awareness lesson.
All communities, whether urban, rural, or suburban are vulnerable to this injustice. Students are one of the highest-risk populations and traffickers are targeting them to become both victims and perpetrators. We can save lives by teaching students how to recognize the warning signs of human trafficking and who to contact for assistance.
This lesson will be taught in your child's Social Studies class either first or second semester depending on each individual school's schedule. To review this single lesson prior to instruction, parents are invited to attend parent review nights at the school district's Central Office, located at 150 Williams Road, Suite A, in Statesboro.
Upcoming Parent Review Nights
