Rights, Respect, Responsibility (3Rs) Curriculum

DCPS currently uses the Rights, Respect, Responsibility (3Rs) Curriculum, a kindergarten through 12th-grade curriculum that shares rights, respect, and responsibilities with students in a developmentally appropriate manner. The curriculum includes lessons on healthy relationships and consent. Additionally, the 3Rs is a curriculum that seeks to provide students with functional knowledge related to sexuality and teach them the specific skills needed to adopt healthy behaviors. The curriculum is evidence-based and shares developmentally appropriate information with children.

Families who do not want their child to participate in the 3Rs lessons should email their child's Health and Physical Education teacher with the subject line: 3RS OPT-OUT.
