We use professional quality tools which communicates to our students they are engaging in real work. This instills a sense of pride, ownership, and responsibility. Although we always assume our students’ good intent, we also establish that the kitchen needs to be a safe space for everyone, both physically and emotionally. This means we have no tolerance for gestures or references to violence, even when made in jest.
