What an incredible night at the Taste of the Permian Basin! 💜🍽️
I am so proud of our Crane Culinary Arts students who stepped up to be part of this special event. They worked hard, represented our program beautifully, and gained valuable real-world experience in food preparation, presentation, teamwork, service, and professionalism.
Opportunities like this take learning beyond the classroom, build confidence, create memories, and show students just how much they are capable of accomplishing.
To the students who participated: thank you for your hard work, positive attitude, and pride in representing Crane Culinary Arts. You did an amazing job, and it was such a joy to watch you shine!
Thank you to everyone who supported our students and our program.
Crane Culinary Arts definitely made its mark during our first Taste of the Permian Basin! What a great event! 🔥👩🍳👨🍳

Good Evening, Culinary Arts Families!
It was so nice to meet those of you who were able to attend our Culinary Arts Parent Information Meeting yesterday. Thank you for taking the time to join us and learn more about our program.
For families who were unable to attend, we will send out information as soon as our next parent session is scheduled. We strongly encourage you to attend, as we will be covering important information regarding student expectations, classroom and lab procedures, travel and competition opportunities, SkillsUSA, dual credit, and the many experiences available to students through our Culinary Arts Program. We want every family to feel informed, connected, and aware of the opportunities available to their student throughout the year.
And now for something a little more fun! 🎉
Information for our upcoming Double Good Fundraiser has been posted in your child’s Google Classroom. Students can begin setting up their individual fundraising stores and getting ready for our sale!
The students have also selected rewards for reaching three different fundraising checkpoints, so there is definitely a little friendly motivation involved! 😊 I am excited to see them set goals, encourage one another, and hopefully have some fun while raising money for our program.
Funds raised will help support expenses such as chef coats, chef hats, student activities, competitions, travel, and other Culinary Arts program needs throughout the year.
Your encouragement and support mean so much to us. Thank you for partnering with us as we continue building opportunities and experiences for our Culinary Arts students.
We are excited for a wonderful year ahead! 👩🍳👨🍳
