Welcome to Connect FCS Ed, I am your host Barbara Scully. Today I am thrilled to share with you my interview with Ramona Hatch of Fresh FACS. Fresh FACS mission is stated as 'Family and Consumer Science is as relevant today as it was when it was first introduced into the American school curriculum as Home Economics over a century ago. Its core content areas of food preparation, nutrition, children and family, textiles and apparel, interior design and consumer economics have never been more important than in today's society.'

The resources that they provide on the web site have been created to enable FACS teachers to present core concepts through a variety of fresh strategies and instructional approaches.

Ramona Hatch is a retired FACS teacher and Fresh FACS is a small company dedicated to the creation of exciting and original resources for the Family and Consumer Science professional.
