Performance day! Our 8th grade delegates performed on the stage at Ford’s Theater today! They gave powerful speeches meant to change the world! They also had a chance to tour the museum and see the Derringer from the infamous night.
Cooking Around the World wrapped up egg rolls to wrap up our unit about Asia. The students learned about India, China, and Japan. They learned about traditional food customs, culture, people, and cooking methods. This was an interesting unit.
Two sections of Foods II classes were the first to use their BlackStone Grill. Mrs. Schmitt bought the grill with grant money and was just waiting for a sunny day to use it! Foods II had a Best Burger Challenge to decide who could make the best slider. They were judged on taste, unique ingredient combination, and appearance. They could season their burgers or add ingredients, but no sauce condiments. They created quite a variety of burgers: taco burger, pizza burger, cheese stuffed burger, and with bacon and onion rings, etc. Thank you to our judges: Mr. Cantu, Ms. Keifer, Zach Prouty, and Norb Geerts.
