national tests

Today I received an e-mail from FCCLA in regards to national tests for Career Pathways.  There are two tests that are ready to be piloted.  If you have students that can take a test in child development or consumerism please contact Wendy Ambrose at the FCCLA office for more information.

National Conference/Deb Larson

You can still sign up to go to the national conference of American Association of Family and Consumer Science. The 100 year celebration will be in Knoxville and the board is looking forward to seeing you there.

As those of you that are teachers see the year wind down I hope that you have a good summer and you are able to relax and get yourself ready for another exciting year.

Our very own Debbie Larson did a wonderful Math presentation at the conference and she will be presenting her findings nationally and we commend her for her in depth study using Math in FACS. She is hoping to line up a summer workshop for those of you that want to use Math as a focus in your classroom to highlight the importance of what FACS teachers do to compliment core curriculum courses.

Happy Summer, Jane Hinrichsen
