Freehold Regional High School District Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management Magnet Program

The Culinary Arts & Hospitality Management Magnet Program equips students to turn their passions into a career by being immersed in a four-year course of study. This consists of a wide range of courses, training, experiences, and activities in the food service career path. Students' course work is enhanced by operating all facets of a fully-functioning restaurant, the Five Star Cafe. Located in Freehold High School, the Five Star Cafe is open to the public three days a week. Students work both in the front and back of the house. By operating every aspect of the restaurant, students receive instruction in culinary arts, restaurant and menu planning, executive chef functions, hospitality management, food/beverage industry operations, cost control, purchasing and storage, event planning and management, health and safety, and applicable law and regulations.

With the incredible learning environment we have here with our students, it is of the utmost importance that students read and abide by the following rules and regulations. We are not just a classroom here, we are a restaurant with commercial equipment and hazardous tools and to maintain a safe and enriching learning environment for all students, the following rules and regulations must be agreed to by students and a parent/ guardians. Failure to abide by the rules and regulations will jeopardize the student’s place in this program.
