Back to School time is very exciting and special to me. This is my 25th year in education. My first 2 days of school have already been filled with collaboration, lots of engagement, and pedagogy. Looking forward to an awesome school year.

@MrKelsey530 Congratulations to your daughter. What a proud moment!!!

A picture with my college grad daughter. She begins another internship next week and then starts her first social work job in August!

As the school year starts to come to an end, my classes are still working hard and showing interest in new things. They did a great job testing out our new rolled ice cream maker. We’re fancy now 😉💜💛 @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

2 events in the same week. It was a pleasure to have my Foods and Nutrition and Event Planning classes prepare refreshments and decor setup for the National Honor Society and Senior Hall of Fame receptions. Proud Mom moment 🤗@JEFCOCareerTech @pghs_spartans

What a “Good Friday” Event Planning/FCCLA teamed up to host an Easter Egg Hunt for our self-contained special education class. Everything was handmade by my class as a kind gesture leading into Easter weekend. Once again, very proud of my group. @JEFCOCareerTech @pghs_spartans

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! ☘️ My Foods & Nutrition class teamed up with my Event planning class to host an all Green Breakfast this morning to celebrate the day. Great teamwork and collaboration between the two classes. @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

@pghs_spartans FCCLA members speaking with incoming students about opportunities for the upcoming school year. They did an excellent job explaining the various courses taught as well as information about joining FCCLA. @JEFCOCareerTech @pleasantgrovees @BrightonJEFCOED

In my FACS classes, many if not all of my Ss have never picked up a needle & thread. I told them we will be making pillows. They immediately shut down and said they couldn’t do that and it looked too complicated. Take a look at their results. @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

So proud of my Event Planning and Foods & Nutrition classes for planning, collaborating, preparing and cooking the food, and setting up decor for a Thanksgiving Feast for our administrators and office/guidance staff. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

Great video made by one of @pghs_spartans Marketing Ss and DECA Member capturing FCCLA and my FACS class preparing and baking Halloween treats for our Boo Gram delivery 🎃@JEFCOCareerTech @creativeeducato

My Foods & Nutrition class had a Fun Friday choice lab and was awarded the opportunity to make whatever their group agreed upon. They were judged on presentation and taste. Take a look at the results. Excellent lesson and great conversation! @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

Halloween Baking Competition - Some of my Ss have never cooked or baked anything before. I was very impressed with many of their treats. They made cupcakes, cookies, and chocolate covered Rice Krispie treats @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

Very proud of my Foods and Nutrition Class for taking the lead on baking and decorating cupcakes, brownies, and cookies for the Boo Gram fundraiser. Master Chefs in the making 🤗 @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

My Event Planning and Foods and Nutrition Classes celebrated the last day of Hispanic Heritage Month by making a few of their favorite dishes and treats we learned about during the month long celebration. @pghs_spartans @JEFCOCareerTech

Happy National Pancake Day! A perfect day to make homemade pancakes. My classes did great understanding mise en place, liquid & dry measuring, the importance of following a recipe in most cases, and communication. I was very proud of the results! @JEFCOCareerTech @pghs_spartans
