 AB    A new AIDS curriculum for New York City junior high school students was
       adopted unanimously at the school board meeting on January 19, 1995. The
       curriculum, which stresses family values and promotes sexual abstinence
       as the best way of avoiding HIV, was not enough to satisfy the Roman
       Catholic Archdiocese, which objected to references to the use of condoms
       to prevent HIV.
