Erin's Law Presentations
Over the next few weeks, our social workers will be presenting Erin's Law. Erin’s Law, or Illinois Public Act 097-1147, requires public schools to provide child sexual abuse prevention education for children in prekindergarten through twelfth grades.
District 25 began providing instruction in compliance with Erin’s Law during the 2015-16 school year. Age appropriate instruction helps students recognize unsafe situations, how to keep themselves safe and understand how to respond to unsafe situations.
School social workers work with each grade level to provide age appropriate information on topics such as: safe versus unsafe touching, the touching rule, secrets, and reporting. For more information on the specific topics and activities that will be covered, please visit the district website.
If you would like to "opt" your student out of this presentation, please fill out the attached form and send it back prior to the presentation day. Classroom teachers will be sharing the specific day of the presentation.
If you have further questions, please feel free to contact Ms. Ague or Ms. Browne.
