February is Career and Technical Education Month!
Did you know Rivercrest offers 4 Family and Consumer Science classes. Students can now take FACS investigations in 7th grade. Then, at the high school level we offer a Family Consumer Science class, also known as Home Economics. We also have Child Development and Fashion and Interior Design. Each class dives into various careers in each of these fields and helps students learn not just job training, but life training.
FACS-Facts you can't live without!
February is Career and Technical Education Month! The Rivercrest Ag program is focused on student knowledge and skill attainment for career options in General Agricultural Science, Plant Science and Agricultural Mechanics.

Program expansions coming soon include construction of a greenhouse, expanded mechanics lab, bee keeping, OSHA 10 training, and drone applications.
