8. Respect the property of others including personal items, classroom equipment and materials in the classroom.
If a piece of equipment is not working properly, let me know. DO NOT try to fix it yourself.
Clean up after yourself.
Please DO NOT ask to borrow supplies from others or other kitchens. Use only your own equipment.
9. Excellent attendance for the school year is important to your success in this class. If you must be
absent due to illness, on the day that you return, ask a student at your table what class assignments were missed. If you are unclear as to what the assignments were, please ask questions. School policy regarding make-up work due to absences will be followed.
10. Do quality work and turn in both written assignments and projects that reflect 100% of your best effort.
12 All students working in the food lab will be expected to secure their hair in a hair tie. This prevents contamination of foods prepared for the class and School Community. No visiting other kitchens during lab. This is a small classroom with a large group of people for safety reasons we need to have all students stay in their labs until all labs are completed.
13 Most important rule is having fun.
This is a culinary arts class, not an “I need to eat class”. The purpose is to teach you to cook, not eat. Therefore, please be prepared to cook for others, the school and the community. That is what chefs do!
