Youth Religious Education: Our Whole Lives

OWL - Our Whole Lives
Our Whole Lives is a series of sexuality education curricula for multiple age groups. OWL is a positive, comprehensive, and age-appropriate educational program that promotes sexual health and is informed by the guidelines of the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS).

Our Whole Lives helps participants make informed and responsible decisions about their sexual health and behavior. It equips participants with accurate, age-appropriate information in six subject areas: human development, relationships, personal skills, sexual behavior, sexual health, and society and culture.

Grounded in a holistic view of sexuality, Our Whole Lives provides not only facts about anatomy and human development, but helps participants to clarify their values, build interpersonal skills, and understand the spiritual, emotional, and social aspects of sexuality.

Once this class begins, it will be a closed class. A separate permission registration form will be offered. There is a mandatory parent meeting before each class begins.

The 1st grade program is 10 weeks beginning in March 2012.

The 4th-5th grade program is 10 weeks beginning in March 2012.
