UPDATE, 2/29/23: Culinary Arts continues to be an exciting and engaging program at Parkway West Career and Technology Center. The program is currently in the middle of Fish Fry Season, serving the public at its on-campus restaurant and food store. Check out the menu below and go to Parkway’s website for more information on all 16 programs offered by the school.

Also, be sure to take advantage of upcoming houses, like the one of Tuesday, March 5 (see link below). Sto-Rox sends dozens students from grades 9-12 to Parkway West every year - but programs fill up fast - so if your child is interested, reach out to Parkway and a Sto-Rox school counselor as soon as possible.

ORIGINAL POST, 2/23/23: When you think of a career center, a few visions come to mind: mechanics-in-training wrenching on cars, future stylists snipping away, or a student wielding a hammer on a nail and a piece of plywood.

But what about cooking? Not only that, but learning things like knife skills, developing a menu and keeping the kitchen clean? Students can learn about all of that - and much more - by enrolling in the Culinary Arts Program at Parkway West Career & Technology Center.

Students will learn the necessary skills to cook, clean and manage a kitchen and restaurant. That’s because they have a restaurant - that’s open to the public - on campus! Not only that, but students can achieve industry certifications and prepare themselves for a fruitful career. Among the jobs they can aim for:
• Sous Chef
• Executive Chef
• Dietician
• Restaurant Manager
• Food Artist

The Culinary Arts Program is one of 16 areas of study at Parkway West CTC. The school started in the 1960’s and today, Sto-Rox is one of 12 school districts that sends students to this vocational training center. If you’re interested in learning more about the Culinary Arts program or would like to attend Parkway West CTC, get in touch with your guidance counselor or contact Parkway West.

Additionally, the Parkway West Fish Fry is back for 2023! Check out the menu if you’re interested in a delicious, student-prepared meal for the lenten season.
