Juniors and seniors in the Culinary Arts program at the LoGuidice Educational Center took teamwork to a whole new level this week! 👩🍳🍝👨🍳
As part of a hands-on, team-building activity, the Career & Technical Education students made homemade pasta, manually rolling the dough with one ambitious goal in mind: breaking the 44-foot record for the longest noodle.
Mission accomplished! Seniors in David Caccamise’s class edged past the record by just inches. ✨👏
