"For practices that come prepared, the negotiation table is one of the few places left where leaders can directly influence their bottom line.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted sex education for many middle school students. Read more here. 🏫
"Researchers taught two different groups of 7th grade students about their sexual health over an 8-lesson course – once during the 2018-2019 school year and again in the 2023-2024 school year. After the courses were completed, each group of students was given a questionnaire on what they learned and their attitudes about sexual health topics. Despite both groups showing interest in the topic, the 2023-2024 group reported more negative feelings and beliefs regarding sexual education than their peers in the 2018-2019 group."
