Sex education online instead of in class? Utah lawmaker exploring the idea

By Sean Moody, KSL

Rep. Justin Fawson, R-North Ogden, suggested an online program that parents could opt their children in or out of. The main module, he said, would cover the basics of reproductive health. If parents wanted their kids to learn about other topics, they could choose to include other online modules. Fawson spoke with the Utah State Board of Education Standards and Assessment Committee earlier this month about how that change could look. “I tend to feel that we should educate our kids to a point where they can make good decisions, but I also respect parental involvement and parental opt-in,” Fawson said.
