Dear Parent/Guardian:
LMACS believes in the importance of educating the whole child, and to support this endeavor, we are welcoming guest speakers from the Sexual & Reproductive Health Program at the Lowell Community Health Center to run workshops with LMACS students in April. These workshop topics include healthy relationships, consent, STis, and birth control. These workshops are designed to support young people in making healthy choices: abstain from sex, use protection when they do have sex, seek health care when they need it, communicate effectively with their families, and respect others’ decisions not to have sex. We recognize parents/ guardians as the primary educators of their children. It is understood that permission has been granted for your child to participate in these workshops unless you decide to OPT-OUT your child by signing and returning the opt-out portion of the letter before Monday, April 1 or contact your student’s Advisor. You may also request a printed copy of the letter from your child’s Advisor.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at 978-656-3400. We look forward to working with you and your child to prepare for a healthy, successful future.
