🍁 A Heartfelt Thank You to LPHS Culinary! 🍁

Today, our LPHS Culinary students, under the leadership of Mr. Skalski, treated our faculty and staff to an absolutely delicious Thanksgiving lunch. From carved ham and roasted turkey to mashed potatoes, fresh salads, warm rolls, and homemade desserts, every dish was prepared and served with incredible care and professionalism.

Our kitchen and dining room were filled with teamwork, holiday spirit, and plenty of full plates! Staff enjoyed a beautifully organized buffet line, festive table settings, and plenty of time to sit together and share a Thanksgiving meal as a school family.

We are so grateful for the hard work, time, and culinary skill poured into this event.

💚 Thank you, LPHS Culinary and Mr. Skalski, for making today extra special!

🌟 LPH Highlights 🌟
Our Green Dragons are hard at work across campus, diving into hands-on learning that builds real-world skills!

🧠 Health Science A & P
Students practiced labeling the human skull and mastering key anatomical structures.

📚 AVID 2
AVID students continued to develop college-readiness skills by learning the basics of the tutorial process and strengthening their collaborative problem-solving skills.

💉 Allied Health Science
Future healthcare professionals practiced CNA exam skills, including dressing and undressing a patient with an injured arm—an essential competency for patient care.

🐄 Animal Science
Mrs. Reagan’s classes explored Artificial Insemination. As part of their hands-on activity, students created a model of the female reproductive tract to deepen their understanding.
