Let Us See if His mind has been changed.

This notification is being sent our by AAFCS organization.

There is to be a segment about FACS on "Good Morning America"  Friday, Oct 11, 2013, it reads as follows.  Looking forward to seeing it!



"Due to the huge response from supporters of family and consumer sciences and AAFCS to the “Jury’s Out” segment last week on Good Morning America, their producer asked AAFCS to arrange for anchor Dan Abrams to visit a family and consumer sciences classroom yesterday.  In case you didn’t see it, Dan’s opinion on “Jury’s Out” was that it’s the responsibility of parents to teach their kids the essential skills taught in family and consumer sciences.

Jay (Judith) Worster, family and consumer sciences teacher at Belleville High School, Belleville, New Jersey, took up the challenge of demonstrating the importance of teaching family and consumer sciences in schools.  Dan Abrams was a “student” in Jay’s “Intro to Culinary Arts” class, along with 15 high school students. Jay taught them knife skills, but also incorporated safety, sanitation, nutrition, and personal finance information. Dan interviewed Jay, two of her students, and AAFCS Executive Director Carolyn Jackson, CFCS.

AAFCS has been told by the producer (but there is no guarantee in the media world) that the piece will air on Good Morning America tomorrow (Friday, Oct. 11th). Please be sure to tune in and see if we have influenced Dan Abrams’ opinion!"
