IMO, NO, not at all, IF the student is willing to learn and the TEACHER is willing to teach, with a good educational plan and GOOD (not stupid) projects!.!.!.!.!.
This really applies to just about ANY class in HS, at least it was with me!.!.!.!.!.I changed teachers in HS till I found one that I thought was challenging enough for me!.!.!.!.!.!.
I remember distinctly in HS that we did have (back then) Home Economics, which kids thought was a "sham" class: the class was taught by a really tough lesbian PE teacher (oh, NO!! Not in Catholic school!?!!?!!?!!?) The kids thought that it was a "get over" class!.!.!.!.!.!.She ended up flunking ALL of the class!.!.!.!.!.!.!.
I can't imagine trying to teach HS these days!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

I think they are!.!.both my kids took it, and they made cookies, and English muffin pizzas!. They were disappointed they didn't get to do more, and have a more active role in class!. Back when I took that class, we had a bigger budget!.
I think letting your child help you cook meals together is far better!. They have more hands-on experience, appreciate the time you spend with them, and learn what goes into their meal!.!.which makes them more excited about eating it!. What I learned in JH cooking class, I learned in a week in the kitchen with my mom!. :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

No!. You will be pleasantly suprised at how far basic fundamentals & understanding of sauces, baking , and overall cooking will take you in life!. Career or just at home it will put you far ahead of the game!. And when it comes to learning how to buget it's the first place most people need to start!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
No!. Eating out all the time is very expensive so you should learn at least the basics of preparing healthy meals! Besides, school is a time to try out new things in preparation for a career!. Some cooks only realize that is what they want to do because they loved it at school!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

NO! Home economics is a very useful skill! not only is it cooking, but menu planning, budgeting, running a household, how to balance a checkbook, useful stuff like that!. Go for it!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Not at all!. If anything you'll at least get out of it how to use a stove/oven and basics of making food!. It's something you can directly apply to your every day life!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
