Students in Mrs. Huchteman’s World Foods class are learning essential kitchen skills in preparation for cooking different foods from all over the world. The skills that the students are learning and mastering include safety, sanitation, and knife cutting skills that will be used in cooking labs where they’ll explore international flavors and cooking techniques.

Thanks to a grant from FCS Financial, Knox County Talon Take Out distributed its first round of food bags last week!
