About the Project

This project fosters a collaboration between Home Economics and Digital Animation programs to educate families on balanced nutrition through hands-on student-led meal preparation and media production. Every six weeks, students will plan, cook, and serve healthy meals while Digital Animation students document and market the events, including maintaining a school social media presence. The initiative builds real-world skills in nutrition, communication, teamwork, and digital media, while strengthening school-family partnerships and promoting community engagement through culturally relevant content. The project also emphasizes inclusive participation and cross-disciplinary learning for middle school students.
