🌯 Recently, our Food Service students spiced things up by making delicious fajitas!
🔪🫑 As part of their dual credit course with MPTC, they applied their ServSafe skills effectively. They washed produce to prevent foodborne illnesses, used separate cutting boards to avoid cross-contamination, and cooked proteins perfectly. This ensured that every bite was safe and delicious!
👏 Well done, students!

Today, we celebrate the signing of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 1975, marking its 50th anniversary. Before IDEA, many children with disabilities were denied access to public education. We've made incredible progress since then!
A heartfelt thank you to all the teachers, staff, and administrators dedicated to supporting our students with disabilities. Your commitment is truly appreciated! ❤️

🥣 For over three decades, the tradition of Stone Soup has been cherished in 1st grade! This special stone has been handed down through numerous teachers over the years. Surprisingly, it creates a delicious soup! Both 1st grade students and teachers add ingredients to whip up a warm meal, all enjoyed on their handmade Thanksgiving placemats! We are so grateful for these little turkeys! 🥰
