Some of you may be saying, "What is Family & Consumer Sciences?" Family and Consumer Sciences at the middle level is designed to help young teens manage their lives to become productive, independent individuals. Students acquire skills for personal and workplace success and utilize technology to enhance learning. Safety, security, and sanitation are stressed at all levels. Service learning is an integral component at the middle level. The overall mission of Family and Consumer Sciences in the middle school is to provide “a solid foundation” for students so that will have the skills and knowledge to make informed decisions that will shape their futures. Because there is clear alignment with high school standards, students will enter high school with the basic knowledge necessary to make decisions earlier and therefore providing more opportunities to be better prepared to be competitive in a global society upon exiting high school. |
