Food Fusion Afterschool Program
Food Fusion is an afterschool program where middle-school students learn how to cook healthy and delicious food.
Open to any middle-school student, Food Fusion is particularly convenient for University Middle School students. This Fall, we are offering two six-week sessions, Wednesdays from 4 – 5:30 p.m. Every class includes hands-on cooking experiences and nutrition science explorations.
Students may register for one or both sessions. Though some duplicate information will be presented, the sessions are not identical, and the food cooked will differ.
Registration is now open and closes August 19. Please feel free to share with other parents with students who may be interested.
