This year's project encompasses our fabulous CHOICE Culinary programs, our ASPIRE grant schools and students, and our Healthy School Teams. The recipes and videos created by our Culinary Students will be posted online and can be shown by our Healthy School Teams throughout the school district. Our ASPIRE students will be making the winning recipe (Nutrition Group providing the ingredients) and eating it as their snack during their program. We want to recognize the competition winners to let the board and community know about the various programs in the district and how they work collectively to meet the needs of students. This project really brings full circle our mission, "We prepare all students to achieve excellence by providing the highest quality education while empowering each individual to positively impact their families, communities, and the world". The SHAC is recognizing the winning entry and providing the certificates but wanted to do so in front of the board. The winning recipes are attached.
