A new kitchen is being built in the Hemet Student Center’s Acacia A building. It will enable the Center to offer meals through the National School Lunch Program, which provides free or reduced price meals for students who financially qualify.
School staff anticipates the kitchen to be ready to offer meals through the program later in January. The Hemet Student Centers include the Hemet Quest Center for grades TK-8 serving 700 students. Among the program’s strengths are its flexibility; many students are involved in modeling and acting outside the school. The Hemet Renaissance program serves 130 high school students. A quarter of its students are in CTE (Career Technical Education) classes, and all juniors and seniors are in internship programs. Thirty teachers serve the student body. |
