*News Flash May 2009*

We have found out that the San Francisco Unified School District will fund one full time vocational educator at Ida B. Wells High School beginning in the fall of 2009.  This is great news!!!

Understanding Our Focus

By teaching ways to cook and work in a restaurant, this program is not trying to create another generation of line chefs.  The focus in this program is equity and access.  Because one uses all of the senses when cooking and working in restaurants, the restaurant experience is an excellent starting ground for developing vocational skills for every individual.  And, with this combination of efforts and exposures, we can give more direct access for students to develop healthy work ethics, healthy food choices, begin to consider their own career choices and work together with others.
