Thalya

My passion is cooking.

I always have loved cooking. It makes me be in a happy place. It's something I feel I have learned how to do on my own. But I've never taken cooking classes. I like the idea of being taught different techniques and recipes that I can try at home. I've also recently been selected to serve as a student leader with the WHEELS-Good Flavor Farms Project partnership, a farm to school program with a social justice aim.

From Thalya's teacher, Ms. MacNeil: 
"I have known Thalya three years and have had the pleasure of working with her as her ninth grade team leader, tenth grade college prep teacher and as her eleventh grade SAT prep instructor. In my role as Dean of Student Affairs, I have been moved by her maturity, openness and curiosity. Thalya has often discussed food justice and culinary arts-related options for her college and career choices. In her college prep course, her case studies focused on sustainable food systems and culinary arts programs that sought to serve poor communities of color."
