Welcome/How to Use this Manual
FCCLA Advisers:
Welcome to the 2013-14 school year!
Attached are the instructions for completing registration. As a part of the instructions, you will
see screen shots to guide you through this process step by step. Please review the instructions
in their entirety before contacting me with questions on the process. Our expectations are that
teachers should be able to register solely by reading the instructions.
This manual was created to serve as a one-stop-shop for all of your Tennessee FCCLA needs.
You will be able to print this document or save it on your computer and return to it when
questions arise. I hope this guide provides you with a very stress-free experience and serves as
a resource for answers to questions that may appear throughout this school year.
This manual should be viewed as an in-depth guide that will walk you through a host of
situations and processes that you will need to make this year a success. The purpose of this
guide is to make your life as an FCCLA adviser easier.
You will see an FCCLA directory, step-by-step instructions on the new and improved indirect
affiliation procedure and conference registrations, deadlines, calendars, forms, and more.
Please read the guide carefully and use it to your benefit.
Thank you very much for your cooperation and for all of your hard work in making the 2013-14
FCCLA year a success.
Sincerely,
Brandon Hudson

The Power of Reading
Based on the belief that success in school and in the workforce depends on developing good reading skills
early, Tennessee has a comprehensive reading initiative designed to promote the educational success of
Tennessee’s children and ensure that every child has the opportunity to succeed in school.
Human Services/Education and Training programs are contributing to this initiative. Through Human
Services/Education and Training classes and FCCLA projects, students are reading to our youth and promoting
literacy during the early years of life.
Below is a list of supplemental reading materials that Tennessee Human Services/Education and Training
teachers have used in their classrooms to enhance course content and improve student reading. These are
only recommendations, and teachers should decide on relevance and appropriateness for students in their
classes.

Tennessee FCCLA Adviser’s Manual
Teacher Submitted Examples of Reading Activities
as Part of the Curriculum
1.
Students in Child Development class or Early Childhood Education Careers class read to children in
preschool, kindergarten, or elementary school programs.
2.
Students take an active role in local day care centers, YMCA projects, and working with selected
individual children at church, neighborhood and in our community. Several students assist with
summer public library programs with great success, appreciation, creating lifelong friendships and
pride.
3.
My Human Services/Education and Training students each do ten (10) hours of volunteer work afterschool at the elementary school. Their volunteer work includes reading to the students and assisting
with homework.
4.
After studying reasons why reading to children is important, students visit local library. Librarians
give tips on reading to children; students select children’s book and write a book report. Class visits
local elementary schools to observe a teacher reading to their class. Then after practicing in class,
my students return to elementary classes to read. Elementary teachers evaluate the students for a
grade.
5.
My Life Connections class goes to our Primary School twice a week and works with kindergarten
children one-to-one preparing them for first grade by reading, playing learning games, interacting,
role modeling.
6.
Our FCCLA group started reading to elementary students in the after-school program. They targeted
stories that dealt with conflict resolution. After reading the story, they do an activity with the
children that relates to the story. They (FCCLA) have decided to make this an important component
of our organization.
7.
I teach a unit on book selection for children. Students choose a child to whom they will read on a
regular basis (at least weekly) for a semester. They will keep a record of dates and books read and
write a report at the end of the semester. This will be incorporated into Early Childhood Education
Careers competencies.
8.
Book Drive for preschool and Head Start programs. FCCLA members donate books for preschool
students and to the local Head Start program. This will give many opportunities for these children to
be read to by their teachers.
9.
For the past few years, we have celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday by reading to elementary students.
We also read to preschool age children that attend out annual Play School in the spring.

Adviser Responsibilities
Providing Chaperones
You are required to provide chaperones for both male and female students that you bring. These arrangements must be made
prior to arriving at camp. We require a ten to one student to chaperone ratio.
If you are bringing or sending students to camp, you are responsible for providing chaperones for your students. If you do not
have a chaperone, we suggest that you contact another adviser and make arrangements for them to take responsibility for your
students. Be sure to indicate on your registration materials if you have an adviser from another chapter responsible for your
students so that cabin assignments can be made accordingly. It is the responsibility of the advisers to provide supervision for
the campers they bring. If you have made arrangements for another adviser to chaperone your students, you must check in
with that adviser on a regular basis during the camp week.
If an adviser must leave during camp, they must secure another adviser to supervise their students. The adviser must notify the
camp office when they leave and advise who is supervising their campers. There is a sign-in and sign-out sheet in the camp
office to use when leaving the camp.
Dance/Game Night
In the event that a dance is held at camp, advisers must be present. Inappropriate dancing is prohibited. During the dances held
in the administration building, ALL students are required to remain in the administration building or in a supervised designated
recreation area.
Dress Code
We rely heavily on the advisers to enforce the dress code. Basically, we ask that clothing cover the body from the shoulders to
mid-thigh. Swim suits for boys and girls (one piece) is appropriate for Tennessee FCCLA/SkillsUSA Leadership Camp. Shirts and
shoes must be worn at all times unless in the pool. Clothing should not advertise illegal drugs, alcohol, tobacco, sex, or violence.
Please use common sense to make sure all campers dress appropriately.
General Sessions
Advisers are needed at all assemblies for crowd control and for making sure that all students are in assembly. Assemblies are an
excellent opportunity for advisers to build rapport with the students by sitting with them.
Dining Hall Procedures
Chapter members are expected to be prompt for the serving of the meals and leave cafeteria as soon as you finish your meal.
Campers are required to wear shirts and shoes in the dining hall; swimsuits are prohibited. Caps and hats are not to be worn in
the dining facility. Second helpings will be served only after the entire group of guests has been served. If there are certain
foods you do not want, tell the server as you go through the line.
Other Responsibilities
Advisers and adult chaperones are responsible for supervising students throughout the week. Please familiarize yourself with
the Camp Policies on the next page so that you can enforce these important rules. Note that advisers have the authority to
enforce policies with any student at camp. Specific adviser duties include supervision in cabins, dining hall door control, and
cleaning grounds. We also ask that advisers volunteer to help their chapter lead a flag-raising or reflection ceremony. Specific
duties will be assigned at the adviser meeting. One of the greatest responsibilities of the advisers is to portray a positive
attitude, a high level of excitement, and good sportsmanship that will spread to the students.
