Choices Learning Center has implemented a monthly breakfast on the last friday of each month. This initiative is part of our life skills program and is tied to both our SEL goals and academic goals. Our students learn teamwork as well as planning and patience through the cooking process. They also integrate both math and science skills or concepts through the opportunities to utilize measurements and scientific factors through the preparation and baking process. We highly emphasize the importance of hygiene and proper etiquette especially during this pandemic time period.
