7th Grade Curriculum Outline
Our 7th-grade curriculum focuses on setting healthy boundaries but also on learning how to distinguish between love and infatuation. In addition, our educators will tackle important topics such as sexually transmitted infections, what they are, how they are spread, and how to prevent them.
All our content is age-appropriate as well as free of any explicit material. At the end of each day, students receive short and simple homework to complete with the assistance of a trusted adult. For instance, it could be a parent, a teacher, or an older sibling.

What is Pure Freedom?
The Sexual Risk Avoidance (SRA) educational model is a national movement to encourage teens to wait for sex, as well as encourage them to make healthy decisions for their future. It stands on the truths that delaying sex until marriage provides men and women with the greatest chance at optimal physical health, successful relationships, and socioeconomic stability. Pure Freedom utilizes this model to no only help students understand what real love is, but also how to create boundaries that protect them and their peers, how to identify abuse, how the human body works, how STDs spread, and ultimately, how beyond-valuable they are.
