School District Calls Off Student Sex Survey
School District Calls Off Student Sex Survey

Bloomington, Ind.-AP) Bloomington-area school administrators have called off plans to survey students about their sexual behavior after parents raised concerns that the questions were too explicit. The Monroe County school district will revise the survey over the summer based on feedback from parents and community groups. They had planned to hand out the survey to nearly eleven-thousand students next week. It included 51 questions for students in grades six through 12 on topics such as intercourse, oral sex, abstinence, sex education and AIDS.

Parents could have opted their children out of the survey. Officials say they planned the survey last year after parents expressed concern over reports that some middle school students were sexually active.

For some reason I am thinking about 'Family Feud'. "Survey says, you're kids are having more sex then you!"
