Culinary Art Curry : 

¨ [Culinary Arts]  will give you the kind of the courage to actually get in the kitchen and learn how to cook the basics,¨ CTE Director, Evet Topp said. “Pre COVID, we were more hands-on, a lot more group work. So we did a lot of things together, cooking demonstration days where we did mock lectures where my students prepared a lecture for the day.¨ Ms. Curry said. Now that they’re in covid it’s difficult for the students to be interested in the projects that they actually do in class. Because if the students are not in class they don’t get the hands on and learning skills they need.
