Nov. 30th 2023, Jeanne and her class had a chance to share on what we do at Westwood Culinary Class.



I have never heard schools doing this, but I guess they have been doing it for many years. They are trying to draw in the smarter students. I guess 8th graders are tester and when the test results are released. The county sends out invitations to the smarter ones, to come to this Attractor Event. 



So, my wife asked a few students from her classes to come help us. Well, the week before this was happening, she had all of her classes make up cupcakes for this event. So, as you look on here, the students are putting the finishing touches on the cupcakes. Thye are putting the fostering on them. 



Before the event started, all the parents and students were invited to listen to the School Subtended. She explained what this was about. Plus, a slide show talking about each school gifted classes. 







This is the school my wife works at. Westwood Academy Prep Magnet School. 









The gentlemen speaking is Principal Alonzo. He just was telling about all the neat things we do here at Westwood. After the four principals spoke all the parents and student were invited to go to each room and see what everyone has available. 




The table behind our students were making chocolate coated pretzels. Plus, cupcakes that they frosted before everyone came in. It was a hit, I think, almost everyone that came into our room, came over and got a cupcake and pretzels. 






Around 7pm the crowds were thinning out. 


The students that serviced the cupcakes and pretzels were telling parents and students that came up about the Culinary Department at Westwood. My little girl was so helpful on explaining her program and all what her students do. Jeanne loves her job, ministry. 


I think the horse's name is Misty. She was a big a hit too. I think everyone was surprised to see a miniature horse before.  I kept hearing folks saying look at the pony. 
Folks it was a wonderful evening and Jeanne, and I were very tried and ready to get home. We took a couple of students back to their homes. They needed a ride home. 
We are very blessed to have students that enjoy helping us out and they get Community Hours for helping too. 
Well, today is Sunday Dec. 3rd already. Crazy how fast the time is going. We will be going to church this morning and hopefully we can get a couple of things done at home today. 
As I try to read the Bible every morning, I am in Psalms now. Today was Psalms 107/108. 107 is about how the people (Israelites) would sin and then cry out to The Lord and He would satisfy their needs. 
How many times do we do stupid things and then realized that we were doing it. It's called sin. 
Our pastor was talking about this last Sunday. But we as Christians we are forgiven, already. 
So, whatever you have done in your past or just a couple of minutes ago, we are forgiven. Do you understand how much He loves us? He is so wonderful.
