Teen Living is the name for family and consumer science classrooms in Tennessee middle schools.  In Cleveland City Schools, we have students for nine-week blocks of time in sixth grade, seventh grade and eighth grade.  Each grade level has its own objectives to be met based on the developmental level of the student.  The classroom is a double-sized classroom with twenty-four student computers and five lab kitchens.
