NCE Conference 2024

The Framework for Middle Level Family and Consumer Sciences developed by LEAD FCS Education is a guide to creating an effective and robust middle level family and consumer sciences program. The framework organizes Family and Consumer Sciences content into eight overarching themes that align with initiatives and priorities of high school FCS programs, pathways, and courses. The framework themes are defined by standards and competencies that identify the foundational content for middle level FCS programs. Through this session, participants will gain examples for applying the framework to their individual district as well as alignment to the Nebraska Middle School Standards for FCS.
