That's how it worked when I was in school 20+ years ago. You'd be sent home with an opt-out form, and if your parents were so inclined they could sign it and send it back and kids in that situation basically got a spare period or were told to study in the library.
I don't remember any of my classmates' parents opting them out of sex-ed. At least, not in high school. Might have been one girl; I had no idea she was a bible-thumper until she talked about how she didn't believe in evolution and would begrudgingly do the coursework in Bio 20 but wouldn't 'believe' it. Her parents
might have opted her out of sex-ed...
