Until a child is "legal" the official position of the schools should be neutral on the subject or they should error on the side of advocating/endorsing/teaching/promoting children to abstain from sex. We know teenagers are going to have sex and we know some parents are not going to educate their children. In my view when the question is asked in school, I think the first response should be - you (teenagers) should abstain from sex, however these are the scientifically proven method to reduce the risk of... - you should discuss this with your parents, doctor, guardian, pastor/rabbi/priest/monk/etc. And, here are the legal implications of you (teenagers) having sex, i.e. - statutory rape, rape, sexual harassment, child support, etc.
