The materials for the study were gathered during a student internship in Nicaragua between February-March, 2018. The answers of all 200 participants were processed in Statistica. The results of the research illustrate a common attitude toward the need to implement more sexuality education content (81% of the respondents). It emphasizes the role of teachers and family members in adolescents` formation. As stated by 31% of the students, abstinence is taught foremost, and as the primary method of sexually transmitted diseases prevention.
