To address the entrepreneurship portion of the Foods II curriculum, Beth Bennett’s Foods II class at Southside High School provides the faculty and staff at Southside High School with a delicious lunch two to three times per semester.  Students handle this self-sustaining project from the beginning to its end.  They plan the meals; prepare the fliers to let the SHS staff know the menu items, the dates and the costs of the meal; serve the meal to those who choose to dine in or deliver to those individuals who so desire; and then clean up.  The menu on Nov. 9 included Olive Garden chicken gnocchi soup, baked sweet potatoes, garlic bread, peaches and cream cake and tea.
One of the students, Shaitiyah Wright, remarked, “The Seahawk Café was a great success.  Everything went smoothly and on time.  It was a great experience and the customers loved the food.  I can’t wait until the next one!”
