| Chemistry of Foods provides students the opportunity to participate
in the food preparation process while learning the scientific basis of
the chemical and biological processes involved in the culinary arts.
Students completing this course will attain Food Safety Certification status
by building on and applying the concepts of food preparation and bacteriology.
This course will provide guided practice and certification for the student
who is choosing the profession while providing an overview of the restaurant
industry for the student who is still expanding their horizons.
Sudents will apply what they learn through participation in an in-house
restaurant/catering component. The class meets two consecutive periods,
and is team taught by teachers from the Family and Consumer Sciences and
Science departments. Students enrolled in the course will have a
common lunch period to allow for flexibility on production days.
