OVERVIEW:
At ESTEM Middle School, our Family and Consumer Science (FACS) program offers students the opportunity to develop essential life skills that will serve them throughout their lives. Family and Consumer Science 1 is designed to introduce students to fundamental life skills, including basics in cooking, nutrition, and practical problem-solving. As they progress, students delve deeper into cooking techniques, exploring creative food ideas and learning to prepare meals from scratch. This hands-on course encourages students to think critically, work collaboratively, and gain confidence in the kitchen, equipping them with practical knowledge that promotes self-sufficiency and healthy living. Through FACS, ESTEM Middle School is committed to fostering skills that empower students both in and out of the classroom.
