Pregnancy rate 35.9 per 1,000 females is from 2013. 18 pregnancies county-wide between the ages of 15-17. Rate is increasing instead of
16th worst county in the state of TN
State says that for any rate higher that is 19.5 or higher must have board approved Family Life Curriculum.
Dr. Wade stated what had been done in the past. Last year she reminded the board that the policy was changed to broaden curriculum for 6-8th and also to extend the program in to the high school for wellness.
As long we can continue improvement then the program will be able to operate at the district sees fit.
