The
mission of the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools/HIV
and AIDS Education is to enhance the educational process
by implementing prevention and early intervention strategies
that enable students to graduate and become productive and
responsible citizens.
The Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools offers training
in drug and violence prevention for staff, students, and
parents. HIV and AIDS Education provides training and assistance
to teachers in the area of Human Growth, Development and
Sexuality. The HGDS curriculum focuses on skill building
for students. A specialist can also present a parent program
to encourage open communication between parent and child
regarding issues related to puberty and sexuality. Programs
offered by SDFS/HIV and AIDS Education are centered on the
40 Developmental Assets, which provide knowledge in building
positives relationships to produce healthy youth, safe schools
and productive communities. Please send any concerns, comments,
