Back to School

Author: Victoria Belt

Planning Unit: Livingston County CES

Major Program: Nutrition and Food Systems General

Outcome: Long-Term Outcome

It’s been 25 plus years since the new Livingston County SNAP-Ed paraprofessional has walked the halls of the Livingston County Middle School. With COVID-19 easing up schools started the year out with letting outside organizations come into the school. The new principal of LCMS had decided things needed to change this year. Middle schoolers needed more opportunities to prepare them for high school and beyond. He asked the SNAP-Ed paraprofessional to come in once a month during Club Days and teach a cooking club. She chose to teach the middle schoolers Teen Cuisine. With a record amount of 42 kids signing up to be in the Teen Cuisine cooking club they had to be divided into 2 groups. They learned basic cooking skills, food safety, and nutrition education.
