Cook up success in culinary arts!

​

Do you love food, enjoy being creative in the kitchen, and thrive in a team setting? Are you ready for a career that offers stability, endless opportunities, and room for growth? If so, our Culinary Arts program is the perfect recipe for your future!  

​

This year-long, full-day program provides a hands-on introduction to the food service industry through the operation of the Glass Onion Eatery, a fully functional commercial kitchen and restaurant. From day one, you’ll gain real-world experience in food preparation, restaurant operations, and hospitality.  

​

In the first semester, students focus on foundational skills, including soups, sauces, entrees, breads, and desserts, while learning dining room service, catering, cashiering, and hosting. Field trips and school-to-work opportunities bring classroom learning to life.

 

During the second semester, students deepen their expertise with menu planning, costing, kitchen management, and off-campus catering. Customized curriculum and in-depth work experiences at local businesses allow students to tailor their education to their career goals. For those who want an extra challenge, SkillsUSA competitions provide the chance to shine on a larger stage.  

​

Whether you aspire to be a chef, restaurateur, or hospitality professional, this program will give you the skills, confidence, and experience to succeed.
