-Erin's Law is a law that requires school districts to teach students in grades K4-12th about sexual abuse and assault awareness. The lessons for each grade level are generated by the district and are taught district wide by school counselors . In the month of November I will be teaching every grade level the Erin's Law lessons. If you would like to review the material you may stop by the front office anytime. I have created a binder that holds all the lessons for each grade level if you would like to preview the lessons. If you have any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to reach out.
