Mrs. L. Serna
My name is Lora Serna, and I am the Family & Consumer Science teacher. I am a Banquete Alumni class of '04. I have received my Bachelors & Masters from Texas A&M University-Kingsville. I double majored in Psychology & Sociology in 2011 with my Bachelors in Arts. Then I decided to continue my education and received my Masters in Science for Psychology in 2013. I taught at TAMUK for 3 years teaching Psychology and a first year freshman course. My love for teaching has brought me to become a teacher at my old high school. I will be starting my 3rd year at Banquete High School. I am very excited to be continuing on this journey with BISD.

What is Family Consumer Sciences?
Family and Consumer Sciences Education (FACS) helps prepare students for family life, work life, and careers in family and consumer sciences by providing opportunities to develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors needed through character development, creative and critical thinking, interpersonal communication, practical knowledge, and career preparation.
Family and Consumer Sciences Education empowers individuals and families throughout their lives to manage the challenges of living and working in a diverse, global society. The challenges individuals face throughout their lives include balancing personal, home, family and work lives; acquiring marketable skills to be successful in life management, employment, and career development; promoting optimal nutrition and wellness; and managing resources to meet the material needs of individuals and families.
