Culinary Arts II
Culinary Arts II students progress to hands-on mastery of advanced culinary skills. They build on skills acquired in Culinary Arts I to gain a comprehensive knowledge of the food service industry, including kitchen safety and sanitation, nutritional principles, and advanced food-preparation techniques. Students may earn a food service certification as part of this course. Contextual instruction and student participation in co-curricular career and technical student organization (CTSO) activities will develop leadership, interpersonal, and career skills. High-quality work-based learning (HQWBL) will provide experiential learning opportunities related to students' career goals and/or interests, integrated with instruction, and performed in partnership with local businesses and organizations.
