My class is comprised of 12 diverse, creative, talented, and developmentally delayed students. I have several with autism, down syndrome, intellectual delays, learning delays, and even visual impairments. Our class is called Cafe Marie.

On a day to day basis we are responsible for providing coffee, bagels and other breakfast items along with hot lunches. We plan our menu all together. We also shop for all supplies and stock items. The students keep an ongoing inventory, stock items, take orders, work the cash register, deliver food, cook, and of course indulge in some of their delicious creations. The children learn many different vocational skills they will be able to take out into the world and use to get and maintain a job of their own.
