The FACs Department: Prepping Students for Adulthood with Rita DiVita

In this episode, we chat with Rita DiVita, a veteran teacher at Normal Community High School in Unit 5. The Family and Consumer Sciences Department is nothing like the movie depictions of home economics of the 1950s. This modern department offers students the opportunity to learn about dietetics, finances, sewing, and career exploration. Students in the Education Pathway program even get the opportunity to observe classrooms to explore if teaching is the right career for them.
