Abstract	This study focuses on the seven standards that are included in a comprehensive (family-oriented) FCS program: (1) Family; (2) Nutrition and Wellness; (3) Human Development; (4) Interpersonal relationships; (5) Career, Community, and Family Connections; (6) Parenting; and (7) Family and Community Services. The study was conducted to better understand the current status of FCS education in Georgia. Teachers were asked to indicate the importance of nationally developed content standards in the programs in which they taught. Participants in this study included 262 high school teachers. More than half of the teachers identified the content standards as major objectives in Parenting (61%), Nutrition and Wellness (55%), and Interpersonal relationships (51%). Content standards were identified as important objectives by 45% and 42% of teachers for Family and Community Services and Career, Community, and Family Connection, respectively. (Contains 2 tables.)
