Our Whole Lives (O.W.L.)

Our Whole Lives (O.W.L.) is a comprehensive sexuality education program that presents accurate information in developmentally appropriate ways.

This fall, we are offering O.W.L. for Peaks Island students in Kindergarten and first grade.

The course, which will include 8 sessions, will be led by two trained teachers:
Margaret Myers (executive director of the Peaks Island Children's Workshop and author of The Fight for Sex Ed: The Century Long Battle Between Truth and Doctrine, Beacon Pess, 2025)
and Tyler Schwaller (Director of Sexual Ethics for the General Commission on the Status and Role of Women of the United Methodist Church).

O.W.L. affirms that parents are children's primary sexuality educators, and the program will begin with an orientation for parents and will involve regular, transparent communication throughout. 

This event will take place on Sundays at 3:00pm from October 19 through December 7.
Parents/caregivers are required to attend the first session on Sunday, October 19 at 3:00pm.
