Star of the Week - A Lesson Plan from Rights, Respect, Responsibility: A K-12 Curriculum
A classroom activity where students take turns being 'Star of the Week' by having their body outline traced on paper while classmates share positive qualities about them. The traced outline with written compliments is sent home for the student to color and return for classroom display.
Flagged Content — 3 items
“Designate the first student who will be star of the week have them lie on a large piece of paper. Trace the outline of this student on the paper.”
Physical body tracing activity may raise privacy concerns for some parents and could make some children uncomfortable with body-focused attention

Documented Policy Violations
The district violated its own parental rights protocol, Colorado state law, and federal statute.
3 Violations Documented · 2 Confirmed · 1 Under Investigation
Failure to Provide Adequate Parental Notice
RFSD adopted the 3Rs K–12 sexuality curriculum without providing parents the advance written notice required by IHAM-R policy. Parents were not given the opportunity to review or opt out before instruction began.
Opt-Out Default Violates Active Consent Requirement
District policy requires active opt-in consent for sensitive materials (as applied for PG-rated film screenings). The curriculum rollout used a passive opt-out model — contradicting district's own documented consent standards.
Board Adoption Process Circumvented Public Comment Period
The curriculum was adopted over documented 80%+ public opposition during the 2023 adoption vote. Procedural questions remain about whether the full public comment window was honored before the final vote.
The Double Standard
The district requires opt-in consent for a PG movie. But not for K–12 sexuality curriculum.
PG-Rated Movie
Parents must sign a permission slip before their child can watch a PG movie at school. Active opt-in required. No exceptions.
✓ Active opt-in consent required
K–12 Sexuality Curriculum
Parents were never asked for consent. Participation was assumed. Opt-out was the only option — if you even knew it existed.
✗ Passive assumed consent — opt-out only
