>ABSTRACT
> The world has been challenged by the AIDS epidemic for 15
>years. In 1985, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
>Centers for Disease Control, allocated funds to all state
>departments of education to assist schools in the development of
>AIDS education policies and programs. Yet, these policies do not
>ensure that all students receive effective AIDS education. On
>September 21, 1991, the Arizona Legislature passed Senate Bill
>1396, which requires public schools to annually provide AIDS
>education in grades K-12. The bill was rescinded in 1995. With
>prohibitive curriculum guidelines, limited teacher training
>opportunities and tremendous instructional demands, this
>educational policy was implemented in disparate forms. By examining
>the perspectives of the Arizona educators (representing three
>school districts), this qualitative study reveals how teachers
>ultimately controlled the delivery and nature of AIDS instruction
>based upon personal values, views of teacher roles, and their
>interpretation of the mandate itself.
