National FCS Educator Day is celebrated to encourage others to become FCS educators and to recognize and celebrate the important role that Family and Consumer Sciences educators play in our schools and communities.
Family and consumer sciences education is for YOU because it has: ? Options to work with different audiences— youth and adults ? Strong employment outlook ? Good starting salaries, pay increases, and career advancement ? Good benefits and retirement plans ? Extended holiday and summer breaks (for those in a classroom setting) ? Excellent professional development opportunities ? Opportunities to improve the lives of individuals, families, and communities!
