It’s a new year, and the Career Skills program food pantry has a new look!
Thanks to the amazing work of the BCSD Facilities Staff and BHS Custodial Staff, the BHS Career Skills food, hygiene and cleaning supplies pantry has a new look. The wall in room 105 has been removed and the shelving and storage areas were moved to make the room more efficient for packing bags that are delivered weekly to students and families in need.
The BHS Interns unloaded two pallets of food and stocked all of the shelves in order to be back in business the first week in January! The space has also provided the opportunity for more students working during a class period, giving all of the students in the Career Skills Program the training and skills needed to create a very successful and productive environment.
The student interns in Career Skills have packed approximately 125-135 food bags per week from their “Filling in the Blanks” pantry and approximately 55 bags a month from their “Bear Essentials pantry.”
With this new construction now completed, the students can enjoy their supermarket-like room and navigate it much smoother, making packing and delivering that much more enjoyable!
