It was great starting day two of WorkCTE by hearing from the state advisers and state officers from 6 of the 8 CTSOs in Kansas. It’s always great hearing about how career and technical student organizations enrich CTE for both teachers and students!

Preparing these Monte Cristo sandwiches built on our French Toast skills from last week. Trying this fabulous flavor combination proved intriguing for many students today… mayo, grainy mustard, ham, Swiss, powdered sugar, and fruit preserves. Yum. @Spangler_FCS

Panther Classic practice day…

We prepared the Cocktail Meatballs for the first time this year. We fixed the sauce, as well. This was our day to get used to making the correct size. Next week we will fix 40 batches to serve in our hospitality room! @Spangler_FCS
