Dear Parents, Monday, February 6th, is our 100th day of school! To celebrate, we are encouraging our students to dress how they think they will look at 100 years old! We encourage you and your child to be as creative as possible! Gray hair, glasses, cardigans, house coats, slacks, suspenders, slippers, purses, anything that you may see a person of 100 wearing! We hope to see everyone participate and can’t wait to see all of our cute “old” boys and girls as we celebrate 100 days of learning! Sincerely, SES Teachers

The Culinary and Advanced Culinary courses made homemade doughnuts using yeast. It was a 2 day process. First day they made the dough and it had to sit overnight. Second day they learned that the yeast had to rise one more time before they could make this delicious treat.
