Opting for Alternate Delivery

OPTING FOR ALTERNATE DELIVERY
Parents may opt for alternative delivery of sensitive material contained in the Personal Development component of Personal Planning K to 7, and Career and Personal Planning (CAPP) 8 to 12. The intent of the alternate delivery option is to ensure that individual values, standards and diversity are respected.

The family is the primary educator in the development of the child's attitudes, standards and values. The school plays a developmental role. To maintain partnership between home and school, it is important that parents be kept informed about all aspects of Personal Planning K-7 and CAPP 8-12 instruction.

The Personal Development component of Personal Plannning (K-7) and CAPP (8-12) addresses topics which may be a source of sensitivity for some students and their parents. In these cases, students with their parents's consent and in consultation with their school may choose not to participate in classes when these topics are discussed, and instead, address the topics in an agreed upon alternative manner.

This option is only available for topics which are part of the Personal Development component of the curriculum. This option is not intended for the following components:

* Personal Planning
* Career Development
* Work Experience

This does not apply to the CAPP 11 and 12 Challenge procedures
