1st – 5th Grade
Dining Etiquette Program (six lessons)
Dining & Social Skills
The 1st – 5th grade lessons focus on dining skills and socialization skills for boys and girls. Each class size is limited to ten children, one assistant, and the instructor. Class times and locations will vary each quarter. (Due to the pandemic, all classes will temporarily be done online via video call). Food is prepared and served five out of the six lessons. Students will dine at a formal restaurant to put their newfound etiquette skills into practice. (Due to the pandemic, food arrangements will be prepared by the family of students). Students are presented with 'Certificates of Achievement' after they have completed all lessons of the program.
