Cosmetology innovative courses set for 2022-2023 school year
The Fort Stockton ISD cosmetology program will receive a reboot this upcoming school year after receiving $150,000 from fund balance by way of approval from the school board earlier last month.
The school district approved mandatory courses, per TEA, to continue to move forward with the program during their meeting on June 30.
The following are the five courses that were approved:
- Microbiology and safety for cosmetology careers
Students who enroll in microbiology and safety for cosmetology careers will receive instruction in the microbial world, studying topics such as pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms, identification of microorganisms, drug resistant organisms, and emerging diseases.

Nail care, enhancement, and spa service students will demonstrate proficiency in academic, technical, practical knowledge and skills (basic manipulative skills, safety judgments, and proper work habits).
- Esthetics, N1302533
Students enrolled in Esthetics will explore the practical skills of a skin care professional, including introduction to the treatment environment, basic facial treatments, hair removal, corrective skin care treatments, makeup application, special effects makeup application and the technology likely to be performed in a salon, spa, or clinical setting.
