I am a 10-grade English teacher in an area that has been deeply impacted by the economy. Our county currently has the highest unemployment rate in the state. My students are eager to learn, but many don't have the resources at home to further their education. My school recently has embarked on a new journey: opening a culinary academy. I will be working with the culinary students, integrating English with their culinary studies. We are hoping that this career academy will be beneficial for both college-bound students and students who are seeking employment directly from high school.
