What is the purpose of the Oklahoma STAR chapters program?

The purpose of the Oklahoma STAR chapters program is to give recognition to chapters that demonstrate a significant percentage of family and consumer sciences enrollment. This program serves to highlight the importance of family and consumer sciences education within schools and communities, motivating chapters to focus on increasing participation in these programs. By recognizing chapters that excel in enrollment, the program not only fosters a sense of achievement and pride but also emphasizes the value of family and consumer sciences as a vital component of education that prepares students for life skills and career opportunities.

This recognition can lead to increased visibility for the chapters and can encourage other chapters to enhance their own enrollment in family and consumer sciences, thereby promoting a stronger foundation in these essential subjects within the community.
