Zusammenfassung:	This research study evaluated the sex education program at the American School of Tampico (Mexico) by examining the students' perception of sex education and the level of knowledge it provided them. A random sample of eighth- through tenth-grade students (n=97) was chosen from the total population of 132 students. Each student answered a survey related to the topic. Most students considered the information they received through the program as useful. The students thought doctors and parents were the best sex education providers and said they received most of their information from parents, doctors, and teachers. Data are presented in five tables; the questionnaire is included in the appendix. (Contains 19 references.) (Author/ND)
