3/23/2026 Crestwood School District Board of Education - Study Session

The Crestwood School District Board of Education held a study session on March 23, 2026, primarily focused on reviewing the updated health curriculum related to HIV and communicable diseases. The presentation clarified that the district complies with Michigan state law by teaching medically accurate HIV/AIDS prevention lessons, distinct from sex education or abstinence-based sex education. The curriculum updates align with the Michigan model of health and emphasize disease prevention, health literacy, and reducing stigma. Board members discussed the curriculum's scope, parental opt-out rights, and the sensitive nature of the topic. No procurement, contracting, or budget decisions were made during this session, and the curriculum update will be brought for a future vote after further review.
