Welcome all knowledge seekers!! 

 

The following activites will help to keep your brain focused on general Family and Consumer Science concepts while we are away from school.  These concepts apply to both FACS I and Nutrition courses.  Activites will be posted weekly and are 100% optional.  There will be no grades/points/awards given for opportunies taken or dismissed.
