Racine Unified School District has utilized the academy model for the last seven years at each of the three comprehensive high schools, Park, Case, & Horlick.  Within the last year, the focus was to increase Project Based Learning (PBL) in the classrooms beyond those that are Pathway or CTE oriented.  As the Academy Coach at Horlick, I oversee the students Ambassadors and bringing in community partners to work alongside our teaching staff and students.  This lesson highlights one part of how teachers utlilize partners in order to implement PBL.

This lesson will allow students to think about and understand the route that a food service product takes in order to get to the customer from start (customer ordering) to finish (delivery to customer). Students will also brainstorm and research the different departments/specific careers that are needed in order to accomplish this goal of food service distribution. ServSafe will also be explored since we are discussing products that are food related.
