Family and Consumer Science (FACS) Courses Grade 9-12
FACS Course Objectives:
Prepare students for family and work life
Allow students to explore careers in areas such as culinary arts and education
Provide students with opportunities to develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes and behaviors needed to make the transition to the world of work and college
Provide students with the opportunity to earn a 5-credit sequence in (CTE) Career and Technology Education as an alternative to the 3 credit requirements in a World Language and the Checkpoint B assessment in a World Language for a Regents Diploma with Advanced Designation. Students may combine courses in CTE disciplines (Business, FACS, and Technology) to create a cohesive CTE concentration. Students would need 3 units in FACS and 2 units in another discipline. The 5 units must include Career and Financial Management (CFM).
