Arizona schools provide families resources on preventing inappropriate contact

The state board develops a recommended resource list and a way for schools and the public to suggest additions. The education department posts the list and makes at least one listed resource available to schools for each age group. Each public school makes listed resources available to all students and their parents. The duties cover public schools in Arizona, their students, and students’ parents. Age-appropriate means generally suitable for children of the same age or maturity level, based on typical development. The resources concern age-appropriate education on preventing and recognizing inappropriate contact, including sexual contact. The education department determines age groups after consulting the state board.
