A big THANK YOU goes out to the Bellefontaine Rotary for their incredible generosity. Their generous donation of $300 to our Culinary Arts program will help provide valuable learning opportunities for our aspiring chefs. But that's not all! The Bellefontaine Rotary has gone above and beyond by purchasing over $200 worth of smoked turkeys - prepared by our Culinary Arts students - for families in need this holiday season.
A big thank you to several local salon and spas that spent the morning with our Cosmetology and Spa Tech students during our first ASPIRE Beauty Fair. This event was organized by our Cos/Spa Tech instructors as an opportunity for their students to make connections with professionals as they work to secure internships and job shadowing experiences.
If you missed it, don't worry! They're hosting a second beauty fair in the spring and would love to have you. Email gshellenberger@ohiohipoint.com for more information.
