Scott City FCCLA has a different theme for each day of FCCLA Week. On Monday, the theme was "Get Rollin' With FCCLA" and members were given Fruit Roll Ups, on Tuesday, the theme was "Get Poppin' With FCCLA" and members were given a fruit juice popsicle. Numbered, heart shaped stickers stating "I Love FCCLA" were given to members on Wednesday. Throughout the day, numbers were drawn and the lucky "winners" received prizes.

This is a 30 minute radio program for our community. On teacher/staff appreciation day all were served subway sandwiches during lunch and on member appreciation day all members in their FCCLA shirt will receive pizza during their lunch shift. The following national programs were featured during the week. Stop the Violence - family game night, catch the kindness wrist bands. FACTS - police officer spoke to sophomore homeroom students. Two seniors who were involved in a serious wreck at the beginning of school also spoke. During student appreciation day all students received free ice cream sundaes with their lunch. Just for fun we had a hush day where boys and girls couldn't talk to each other, candy guessing contest during lunch and hidden logos in the classrooms and school.
