Welcome to Home and Careers
Home and Careers is designed to help students prepare for a rapidly changing future through the use of hands-on relevant activities. The focus of the curriculum is to develop the critical thinking skills of decision making, problem solving, management and goal setting while utilizing a variety of resources. The students use individual as well as team based/cooperative learning experiences.
Home and Careers is offered for ten weeks in 6th, 7th and 8th grades. As a student progresses through middle school home and careers courses, each new course builds on the experiences of the previous year.
We look forward to an enjoyable class.
