This semester students will learn the basics in safe meal preparation, the food guide pyramid, both hand and machine sewing, interior design principles and child development and parenting skills. Students are required to have a section in their 3-ring binder to save all class work. There is a $20.00 class fee to pay for the cooking lab supplies and sewing project kits. Please make checks payable to BEHS and turn in to main office by February 15, 2005.
Students need to bring their own sewing supplies in a Ziploc bag; scissors (I can engrave scissors so they are not so easily lost), seam ripper, package of 4 sewing machine needles size 11 or 14, straight pins, and spools of black and white thread. They will also need a yard of 45” wide fabric and matching thread (chef apron project). All sewing supplies should be at school by February 15, 2005. Scholarships are available for the class fee and the sewing equipment. Please let me know if you need one.
FCCLA club (Families, Careers, and Community Leaders of America) is the student leadership organization that meets once a month to learn about careers and plan service projects to improve self, family, school, and community.

are required each quarter.

Please discuss any special circumstances with me. Students are responsible for
completing missed assignments due to any excused absence. These should be completed
