Exploring Home and Career Skills classes meet on alternate days for a year. It consists of three units: sewing, culinary skills, and entrepreneurship. The sewing unit will teach intermediate machine sewing skills and will culminate in the production of two projects, one of which will be a community service project. During the culinary unit, students prepare several recipes and learn how to prepare nutritious foods. While working through the entrepreneurship unit, students are thrown into the North Middle School “Shark Tank” as aspiring entrepreneurs who pitch their food based business idea to a panel of potential investors in hopes that someone on the panel likes their business enough to bite! Do you have what it takes to start a business?
