LifeGuard/Human Sexuality

What is LifeGuard?

In Leander ISD, students in Grades 7–9 are taught Human Sexuality Curriculum through presentations by LifeGuard, an independent organization. The topics covered in this abstinence-based curriculum are found in the Texas Health TEKS. All content has been reviewed by the Leander ISD School Health Advisory Council (SHAC) and is grade-level specific and developmentally appropriate. 

Texas House Bill 1525 requires that students must opt-in to participate in the LifeGuard presentations. Please see below to access the opt-in form. 

When will the presentations take place?

Leander High School students who opt-In to LifeGuard will view the presentations May 14 - 15 during 2nd and 6th periods. 

How can parents preview the material?

If you wish to preview the curriculum, you may do so at your home campus.  Parents/Guardians may contact their campus to schedule an appointment for viewing. LISD will host a virtual parent workshop via Zoom; future times are listed below. Parent workshops are designed to give parents helpful tips for communicating with their children (grades 7-9) about human sexuality, allow them to review the district curriculum, explore statistics from health officials, and ask questions of LifeGuard and LISD staff.
