Family and Consumer Science Update

This week all students in Family and Consumer Science completed their unit on water and PhytoChemicals. In addition to this unit our students were tasked to prepare for their cultural fair presentation.

Looking into next week, our students will begin their practicum for the water and phytochemical unit by preparing and creating a fruit tart. This tart will encompass all the features of the unit as we will be utilizing various fruits which provide nutritious phytochemicals and nutrients. Also, next week we will begin our 2nd Thematic Project. This project will take us into the week prior to Thanksgiving.

Also, a SignUp Genius has been created for our annual Charlie Brown Thanksgiving which will take place on Wednesday, November 23rd. The Advanced Culinary students will be challenged to cook for the whole school community and their families. As it has been a tradition at San Tan, we look to continue this tradition; however, we look for the support of our community to ensure this is a success. Please be advised that all ingredients must be on hand by November 18th, 2022. This will allow the culinary students to inventory all food items and make any necessary adjustments. The link to the SignUp Genius is as follows:

Please help our preparations with your food donations by clicking on the link below:

I will continue to post as much of our classroom activities as possible on our schools/district Facebook page with photos and videos. So if you haven’t done so already, please follow us on Facebook.

Lastly, if anyone is interested in being a guest presenter or if you wish to donate to the San Tan Family and Consumer Science program you may do so by contacting me at eramos@santancharterschool.com, going to or continue to look for our Donors Choose and/or SignUp Genius requests.

Thank you very much,
