CTC STUDENTS AND STAFF DONATE THANKSGIVING BASKETS FOR STUDENTS AND FAMILIES
Over 40 Careerline Tech Center student families will receive Thanksgiving meal boxes packed and prepared by a variety of Tech Center programs working together. Agriculture and Animal Science program students and instructors donated chicken raised for a broiler chicken competition. Freshly baked pies and dinner rolls are compliments of the Pastry Arts and Baking program students while students in the Culinary Arts program honed their culinary skills by making mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing and squash. Students are selected to receive Thanksgiving baskets based upon their notification to the school that their families would appreciate it. CTC staff volunteers then drive throughout the county delivering baskets to student homes during Thanksgiving week.
