OSPI SAYS
In their new and improved FAQs OSPI responds to the question, Does new legislation (Senate Bill 5395) take away local flexibility?
"No. Most districts are already providing sexual health education and will be able to continue using the same curriculum."

The requirement to teach affirmative consent.
Here are just a few examples of what teaching consent looks like.
