CEO activity

**As a Family and Consumer Sciences high school instructor, there is not very much business that goes on. Our purpose is to educate the next generations with the household skills to survive and thrive in our world. This being said, there is little, to no buying and making a profit sort of stuff.  So, this is to fellow teachers in which I advise them to use the ISU representative as a resource to help with mechanical issues within our kitchens.**

Story County FCS Instructors,

I recently met with a young lady from ISU. She is an engineering major and has many services to offer us. Her main objective in the club she is associated with, is to efficiently build vehicles and race them to maximum comfort and minimum difficulties. She has made a deal with Ames Schools and the surrounding county schools to help us FCS teachers. She is willing to put research into developing us ovens and other kitchen equipment that will have excellent performance and long term running abilities.
Yes, we do not have to deal with all of the “out of order” kitchens anymore. Our students will be able to make use of all the appliances we are given.

Until the team finalizes their designs and get them into our kitchens, they have agreed to make fixes to any problems we have, and have agreed so at a great rate.

Heres what you do if you are experiencing an appliance related issue:

You do not need to first go through me, but email the ISU team directly. They are getting hundreds of emails per day and so you need to make it brief and right to the point. As engineers, they do not expect the fluff or anything extra details. Include only the need-to-know details and exact issue you are having. In this case, blunt is best. This is for their efficiency and yours.

This is a great opportunity and a great value. Let me know if you have any questions regarding their business or how to get ahold of them.

Sinceerely,

Ashley Meyn

Director of FCS Ed.
