HONOLULU (AP) – A sex education skit at Kahuku High & Intermediate School has angered some parents who say its content was inappropriate for students.

The skit, “It Can Happen to You,” was performed by peer educators as part of an assembly March 21 attended by 600 students in grades seven to 12.

Michael Sudlow, the parent of a 16-year-old-student at the school, described the play as semi-pornographic and said it included dildos, explanations about oral sex and a Saran Wrap condom alternative.

“We were really shocked at the audacity of the school to show that stuff,” he said.

Sudlow added that his son thought the play was degrading.

School Principal Lisa DeLong has apologized for the play. She said she failed to preview it and did not make sure parents received a letter they could sign to exclude their children from the presentation.

The play was supposed to focus on safe practices during prom night, but veered off that theme, she said.

“There was content that was of a very sensitive nature, and it did involve contraception,” DeLong said.

State Rep. John Mizuno said he was concerned about sex education at other schools as well, citing the experience of a Kalani High School parent.

John Iervolino, a track and field coach at Kalani, said two transgender males came to his son’s tenth grade health class a few months ago as part of a sex education program. They briefly mentioned abstinence before moving on to a more explicit discussion of sexual conduct.

Iervolino said one girl was asked to read a cue card about how to excite and have sex with an HIV-positive man.

“It was the most disgusting thing I’ve heard in my life,” Iervolino, who attended the class, said. “This was just flat out debauchery.”

Gerald Teramae, principal of the school, said Iervolino was only the second person to complain about the program, which he said the school has had for many years.

Teramae said he did not know the specific content of the presentation Iervolino attended, but he said the two-part program focused on HIV and sexuality.

“If our students felt offended or harassed, they would speak out,” he said.

Still, he said school officials subsequently modified the presentation to make it “more appropriate for all parties involved.”

Mizuno, D-Alewa Heights-Kalihi, said he plans to the take the issue of sex education up with the school’s superintendent Pat Hamamoto.
