Critical thinking skills. Healthy relationship choices. Standard setting.

Recently revised and updated to contain new activities and even more medically accurate information, the Think On Point public school curriculum addresses pressing issues such as sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, puberty, the importance of standards and boundaries, peer and media influences, decision making and healthy relationships. The Think On Point curriculum is Tennessee's largest and most successful risk avoidance education program, and is being taught in more than 40 states and 11 foreign countries. 

This year, the Think On Point program will reach over 13,000 students in Hamilton, Bradley, Catoosa, Dade, and Walker Counties.
