Dr. Pedersen AAFCS Teacher of the Year!

Congratulations to Apalachee's very own Dr. Carmen Pedersen - the American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences (AAFCS) National Teacher of the Year!

AAFCS leaders say, "The impact Carmen has made on the Family and Consumer Sciences profession is admirable. With AAFCS members like Carmen and schools like Apalachee High School, the FCS content areas continue to be vital to the lives of many students and communities."

Dr. Pedersen will be recognized this summer at AAFCS 2023 national conference in Baltimore.

We are so proud to have Dr. Pedersen as part of our Chee Family!
