their surroundings at all times. All student activity will be recorded Dean's List and parents can

check their child’s progress regularly.

On Dean’s List, students marked “culinary at risk”, who are unable to participate successfully

in class, will be dismissed from that week’s hands-on class activities and presented an

alternate activity on prep/cooking days. Students marked “culinary unsafe” on Dean’s List will

be given a class suspension that week. If the problem persists, parents will be contacted and

the student will be asked to exit the class.

Community Interactions

Community members are encouraged to participate in this course! If you have a skill or a

business that you would like to offer the class, whether it be a demonstration, guest speaker,

or a field trip to your business, please complete “Back to School: Culinary Questionnaire”.
