FCCLA Advisers attend the 8th Grade CareerTech Fairs at our feeder schools to showcase our programs to incoming students.

In the secondary course description catalog, FCS courses are listed and described in detail. The course catalog can be found here.

Signs are hung up around the school during enrollment time promoting FCS courses. Signs are also hung up for the first two weeks of school in August when students are allowed to get schedule changes.

We have an announcement made the first two weeks of school in August telling students about our classes so they can ask their counselor about getting up in the FCS courses during class schedule change time.

Various projects completed in the FCS courses are displayed in the library or on the walls outside of the FCS classrooms.

FCS Career Readiness
-
Career units are taught in all of the FCS courses.
-
Students go on field trips to expand their knowledge of FCS-related career fields. For example, Culinary students take a tour of the OKC Zoo Animal Commissary. During this tour they get to see the kitchens that the animal food is prepared in, what the animals get to eat, and how the food is prepared. They even get to look through the cookbook of all of the recipes needed to feed the numerous animals at the zoo.
-
The Culinary students earn their Cleveland County Food Handler's Permit, which is good for three years. This permit is required in our town, Moore, and in Norman, a neighboring town, if a person wants to work in the food industry.
-
The Human Growth students earn their ELCCT(Entry Level Child Care Training) certification, which provides them with the knowledge needed to provide quality care for young children.
-
Culinary students complete a food truck project that requires them to create a mock food truck business, which was featured in a local news story and is featured below.
