The expanded program provides students with exposure to food service operations and opportunities to collaborate with the district’s Nutritional Services and Catering Department, according to the news release.
Feather and Fork was established at the Learner Support Center, which houses the district’s catering facilities, using funds from the 2023 bond program, according to the news release.

Applications for the culinary arts program, along with other CTE programs, are now open. The priority deadline to apply is Feb. 20, but applications will continue to be accepted after that date, according to the news release.
“Our goal was to add a second CTE program at Clear Lake High School to give students more opportunities to discover their passions through hands-on, skills-based learning,” Clear Lake High School Principal Elizabeth Raska said in the news release. “Collaborating with Chef Thien Le, our CTE team and our facilities department to bring this state-of-the-art space to life has been the realization of a vision years in the making.”
