1.yes i think that it is a good idea because many students will feel that they have someone that they can talk to if they are caught in this situation.
2.yes, because both male and female are active in intercouse and both can catch a type of disease.
3.yes.
4.yes because many students dont get the advise that they need to be getting from their parents and everyone needs to know about incourse and what kind of diseases one can catch from this situation.
5.i think that some do while others are left in the dark about the whole situation. Many know because they are around students every day and some adults know more about their students than the students parents know about them. While other adults just mainly don't care what their students are doing and what problems could arise from the parents not paying attention to their kids and giving them the attention that they need to know right from wrong.

First off i think its a great idea to have reproductive health service avalable in schools kid have to go with their parents to a hospital doctor and most the time they come in the room and the doctor and teen dont get the one on one discution. i think it should be open to males as well. they care just as much about knowing about sex and percautions that they should use. OF COURSE high school students are sexually active their horomones are testing them and friends are peer presureing it but the problem is they dont know how to pertect them selfs they think there is no way a condum could break or that birth control is only 95% protective. classes that help kids understand the trouble of taking the risk should be avalible at schools so many kids need to know what is in store for them if they practice intercourse. im sure adults have an idea of whats going on i mean you guys where once our age too but things have changed and there is more complacations these days that even the kids dont know about yet.
Kelly:
I think it would be a great idea to offer reproductive health services at school to both male and females. It would advise them more about teen pregnancy and preventions for it. Yes I do think high school students are sexually active; I've heard from them personally. Prevention and contraceptive should be available at school for teens so that could prove there knowledge. I think some parents know about there children having sexual activity but not all do.
Ava:
Yes I think offering reproductive health services at school is a good idea.It should be available to males and females because they should both know what's going on and the problems with teen pregnancy.Yes I think some high school students are sexually active while others are not and pregnancy prevention advice should be available to students at school.I think somme adults know about teens sexual activity as others dont because some teens tell their parents about there life while others dont get their parents involved, I think it mostly all comes down to if parents talk to their kids about sex and pregnancy.
1. Yes i think its a good idea because it teaches student and helps them out with their problems.
2. Yes it should be available to both male and female because both of them should be aware of reproductive health services.
3. Yes, high school students are sexually active all the time and almost everyday.
4. I think it should because students need to know how big of a deal it is and what is at risk and what the consequences are when you should at one time get pregnant at this age.
5.They probably do, but what they don't know is that its changed a little bit and things aren't what they use to be when they were younger but i say they probably know more stuff than what we do.
1.I think it is a great idea to offer reproductive health services at school.
2.It should be available to both male and female so they know whats right and whats wrong.
3.Yeah I think that high school students are sexually active about all the time.
4.I would give the advice available at school so they wouldn't mess up their life and the future for them.
5.They probably do but it was probably different in their day.
I think that it is a good idea to offer reproductive heath services, I belive if the schools do offer it, it may lower the rates of teen pergnancy. I also belive that it should be offered to male and female. I belive that alot of the students in schools everywhere are sexualy active. Half of them may or may not know what they are geting themselves into. I think that advise should be givin to anyone who needs to know, then they may go into being sexualy active blindly. I think that adults don't know some of what the kids are doing or they may not want to see but it is there.

1.Yes, i think its a very good idea because some kids will not go to there parents and might end up in a bad situation and if this was offered they will feel like they have somewhere to go and talk.
2.Yes, i think it should be offered to both because all students should know about the risks and consequences that come when you take part in sexually activity.
3.No, most students in high school are sexually active but i wouldn't say all are
4.I think they should only be offered if kids are willing to listen and learn why they should use contraceptives because if you just handed them out people would just take advantage and get them for the wrong reason
5.I think most adults espessially parents know its going on but just don't realize that it can cause a major problem and i feel like if they had more information that there would be alot less teen pregnacy
1. Yes because it is a good idea because alot of kids get into bad situations and if we have reproductive health services at school because they can feel they can talk to because not many teens parents wanna discuss this kinda stuff with us.
2. Yes because they can both catch diseases from each other.
3. Yes some are sexually active but then again some people are not.
4. Yes i should because girls shouldnt be getting pregnant while still in school because that just takes your focus away from school they should wait til they are through with school and it would be very helpful if teachers taught teens ways to prevent pregnancy.
5. Kinda its like some parents no and some dont because alot of kids dont tell there parents most of the time the parents find out from other people but teens should be open to their parents.
1.Yeah because if they ever get into that situation they know they would have somebody to talk too about it.
2.Yes because both male and females are sexually active and they could catch some kind of disease.
3.Yes
4.Yes because some teens don't get that kind of advice from home and some parents don't wont to talk to their kids about it.
5.Well i think some do and some don't. Most teachers know more about their students than parents know about em, because teachers around teens everyday and some parents don't really care what their kids do know days.
1. Yes I think that it would be a very good idea to offer a reproductive health service at school because a student who might be caught up in some kind of situation like this may think that they have noone to talk to because they are either to ashamed or afraid to talk to their parents about it. By offering that at school they may feel like there is someone there who they would feel confident in talking to.
2. Yes I think it should be offered to both male & females because they are both sexually active and may or may not know what kind of diseases they can catch.
3. Yes high school students are sexually active, you hear about it all the time.
4. I think that pregnancy prevention/contraceptives should be available at school so that there might be a chance that if the student is sexually active that it could possibly cut the risk of them becoming teen mothers and fathers.
5. I think that some adults have some knowledge but not all do; because if more adults knew how sexually active their teenagers were I believe that some parents wouldn't let the teens start dating as early.
1. Yes, so that you have more of an oppurtunity to go and see someone about the problem that you are facing. And they notify your parents so they will no what your doing and they will be able to help you face it.
2. Yes, both males and females get STD's and there needs to be a place that they can go to get treated.
3. Yes.
4. Yes, not everyone has someone at home that talks to them about the risks of havng sex.
5. I would say yes that they know. They were teenagers at one point in time and even if they didn't have sex, they probably knew someone, whether it was a family member or a friend, who had sex as a teenager. Even if they don't know for sure they probably have some kind of a clue that teens are having sex.
Reproductive health services at school would be a very helpful to decrease the great rates of teen pregnacies and spread of STD's. This service should be available to both males and females because both genders can get STDs and also can be involved in the delima of a unwanted pregnancy. I think that a great amount of high school students are sexually active mostly due to the great amount of peer pressure. Also in smaller towns teens think that they have nothing better to do, but they still don't realize all of the risks like they should, thats why they don't think its such a big deal. I think that prevention and contraceptive advice should be available at school in order to inform the students they need to protect and take care of themselves. Most adults do not have knowledge about teen sexual activity, becasue they hide it. Mainly because they think the adults will have a harsh reaction when they tell the truth, and they think they will not understand the situatin.
