Please save all your tests to study; your final is 1/7 of your semester grade.
GRADING SYSTEM:Attendance is very important in this class. This class simulates a work environment; therefore your daily participation is a vital part of your grade. The grading system is as follows:
Daily Lab Work, Journal and Quizzes 10%Semester Exam 14%Tests, Homework and Reports 38%CACC Expectations (4 times a semester) 38% (lowest score dropped)
ATTENDANCEStudents are expected to be in class daily and to be engaged in the learning process. Regular attendance is essential for success in school and in life. Research shows that students with 95% or above attendance are more successful academically by earning better grades and performing better on college entrance exams. Our attendance goal for all students is 95% or better.A portion of the class grade is based on Career Center Expectations, which includes attendance and participation in class, lab, shop, or worksites. Absences, except those for a school-sponsored activity, may affect a student’s grade.
MAKE-UP WORKThe following is the Culinary Arts Department policy on make-up work. Any work missed is automatically entered as a zero in e-schools.
3 of 14
Excused (Parent Excused, Excused, Medical, Field Trips) and Verified Absences All missed work may be made up at full credit. It is the student’s responsibility to initiate contact with the teacher to get make up work. Work must be made up in a timely fashion, within the same number of days as the absence (e.g.
absent 2 days, work made up in 2 days). Participation points are lost due to absence. Students may possibly make up lab time by working
in the classroom/shop/lab outside of class time or through alternate assignments determined by the instructor. However, in some classes experiences are limited and opportunities to repeat them are not available.
Suspension (ISS, OSS) Missed work may be made up at partial credit, 50%. It is the student’s responsibility to initiate contact with the teacher to get make up work. Work must be made up in a timely fashion, generally within the same number of days as the
absence (e.g. absent 2 days, work made up in 2 days). Instructors may expect students to make up work during suspension and submit upon returning to school.
Participation points will be lost due to absence.
Truancy Work may not be made up. This will result in zero credit for missed work. Students will be subject to loss of participation points. Students may be permitted to take exams at partial credit, 50%.
RETURN POLICY FOR SECOND SEMESTER Students who are performing below average, or who are failing the semester are subject to removal from the program at semester. A student/parent conference will be held prior to the end of the semester with the appropriate individuals present and alternatives will be discussed.
PREREQUISITE FOR ADVANCED COURSESTo be eligible to take advanced courses, a student must meet the prerequisites for the course in which he/she wishes to enroll. Prerequisites vary by course, but generally include a minimum grade and satisfactory performance on attendance and Career Center Expectations. See individual course descriptions for specific prerequisite information. If the curriculum for a prerequisite course is modified in any way, a pass/fail grade is issued. Pass/fail grades do not satisfy the grade requirement to take advanced courses.
COLLEGE CREDIT Articulation Credit Students may earn college credit for Career Center classes through the Articulation process. College credit awarded through Articulation gives the student a jump-start into a technical degree program by allowing the student to by-pass certain entry-level classes at the college level for which the student has already mastered the coursework. Articulated college credit is free and is transcripted after the student 1) completes the high school course and 2) enrolls and completes the required number of credit hours at the institution awarding the credit.
Eligibility: Grade of 80% or better in this class for the yearAttendance of 95% or better in this class for the year
Institutions: Johnson and Wales and Art Institutes
ARTICULATION AGREEMENTS: upon completion of Culinary Arts II. (Must have C average for high school, B average for culinary classes) Johnson and Wales University - 15 credit hours
Art Institute of Colorado - 12 credit hours Art Institute of Chicago - 13 credit hours Art Institute of Atlanta - 8 credit hours
ACADEMIC INTEGRITYThe integrity of the academic program and the evaluation of each student’s achievement are of primary concern to educational institutions. Cheating on an educational exercise not only reflects dishonesty on
4 of 14
the part of the student, but also diminishes the value of the work done by his/her classmates. Students who cheat or plagiarize (using another’s words, ideas or writing as one’s own) shall be subject to the following: referral to the assistant director; parent/guardian contacted; a zero recorded for the exercise; possible detention and/or suspension; and/or removal from the course with a grade of “F” recorded on the transcript.
STUDENT SERVICESStudent services are available to help students succeed in their technical classes. Students in technical programs are eligible for extra assistance by asking for help or by having their teacher refer them to the Student Services team. There are reading specialists, a math specialist, counselors and resource personnel who will help students in classrooms, by appointment and/or before and after school with any problems they are having in their technical classes. An employment specialist is available to students who are looking for part-time or full-time jobs. In addition, persons knowledgeable about financial aid for post high school training/education are available, as well as persons who can help students assess their vocational strengths and preferences in order to make more informed career choices.

Classroom Rules/Policies and Procedures
Culinary Arts Classroom & Kitchen Policies2009/10
Chef David Haynes
The following policies are for the Culinary Arts Program are in addition to and consistent with the Adams County Tech/Prep Student Handbook policies but are customized for the Culinary Arts Program.
Competency Based EducationThe Culinary Arts programs at ACTP are competency based. While there are traditional reading, writing and math components, that are important and integral pieces of the program, the mission of the program is to provide you with competencies/skills as established by the American Culinary Federation (see Competency List), that will allow you to enter the industry upon graduation or continue to enhance your skill sets at post-secondary institutions.
The goal of the Culinary Arts Program is to provide students with foundational skills sets, knowledge and professional habits that are demanded for success in the industry. It is my goal to help you develop the habits and skills that will allow you to successfully enter the job market or continue your training at a post-secondary school.
9 of 14
Each student will be given a list of the competencies. Students will have input as to determining when and to what extent they have achieved each competency. The final competency level will be determined by the Chef Instructor and initialed by the student.
Culinarian’s CodeThe Culinarian’s Code of the American Culinary Federation was used as a model in the formulation of the following classroom and lab policies. (See attached copy)
Attendance
All students will adhere to the ACTP Attendance Policy. The calendar for the Culinary Arts program will follow the Gettysburg Area calendar for the 2008/2009 school year (Attached). Understand that the GASD calendar may differ from that of your home school. Additionally, there will be a number of events throughout the school year that may necessitate your participation outside the regular class time. For some, this may mean arriving for class early and for others it may mean staying beyond the regular class time. Transportation will be arranged to get Level 1 students back to their home schools in during regular school hours.
Grading
Student Grades will be calculated using the following criteria Attendance & Professionalism 25%Homework & Journal 10% Quizzes & Notebook 10%Tests/Exams 20%Labs/Production/Cleaning/Shadowing (Level 2) 35% Total 100%

Re-read the policy in the ACTP Handbook
Homework Assignments
Will be posted on My ACTP Webpage:
http://www.gettysburg.k12.pa.us/webpages/dhaynes/
When each homework assignment is given to the class, each student will sign a form acknowledging that they were informed about each homework assignment and its due date. Review the homework policy in the ACTP Handbook. In addition to this policy, any student who fails to turn in three (3) homework assignments will be assigned to ISS at their home school. This policy will be enforced each time three (3) assignments are not turned in on time. The student will receive a 0% for the day.
JournalEach student will keep a journal of each dinner they eat, including, where the meal was prepared, who prepared the food, the items served, their cooking methods, and an evaluation as to the quality of the food prepared and the healthfulness of the meal. Additionally, the same should be done for any meal eaten in a full service restaurant, including evaluation of the service.
10 of 14
Uniform Policy
Clean uniforms (See ACTP Handbook-Culinary Arts Grooming & Personal Hygiene) will be worn to class every day. Students are encouraged to get and extra Chef coat and hat so that one can be at home in the wash. Students must be in their complete uniform (except apron and hat) and seated in the class at the beginning of the period or they will be considered late for that day.
Chef Hat & Apron (to be worn in the lab) Black leather non-skid shoes Pants Chef Coat
Any day that a student is not in complete/clean uniform, they will not be allowed to participate in any
part of the lab class except clean-up and will receive a 0% for their lab grade and a reduction of 50% of their professionalism grade.
During the lab (before clean up) students who are not in a complete/clean uniform will do a reading , writing assignment, assigned by the Chef Instructor, in the banquet hall and will deliver an oral presentation to the class the next (class) day. The project will be given a quiz grade.
After three days that a student is not in complete/clean uniform, the student will be assigned to ISS at their home school and receive a 0% for the day. This policy will be enforced each time a student fails to have a complete/clean uniform for three (3) days.
Students will clean out their lockers and take their uniforms home to be washed the last day of each school week(Usually Friday). Anyone not cleaning out their locker on the last day of the school week will receive a reduction of their professionalism grade of 50% for that day.
See the policy on jewelry, cosmetic and nail polish.
Driving & Parking
Level 1 students are not allowed to drive to Culinary Arts classes at the Fire Department
Level 2 students are responsible for their own transportation. They must park in spaces along the alley on the south side of the parking lot. Students must obey all city traffic laws.
Lockers & Locker RoomLockers are provided for Culinary Arts Students, but each student must provide his/her own lock.
Lockers are to be used for storage of uniforms. During class, students should lock up their street clothes and valuables. While there has been little
problem with theft, the Gettysburg Firehouse is a public building. Locks keep honest people honest. All uniform pieces must be locked in the locker before students leave for the day. Culinary students should change in the appropriate restroom. Lockers must be cleaned out on the last class day of each week. Uniforms should be taken home
and cleaned over the weekend. Anyone not cleaning out their locker on the last day of the school week will receive a reduction of their professionalism grade of 50% for that day.
The sous chef group for the week should check the locker room before class is dismissed each day.
Food in the Classrooms & Use of the Vending Machines11 of 14
Consumption of food in the classroom is a privilege and will be allowed as long as it done responsibly.
We are guests of the Gettysburg Fire Department. Use of the vending machines, located in their break area, is a privilege and will be allowed as long as students treat the space and the members of the Gettysburg Fire Department with respect. If there are any complaints about student behavior, use of the vending areas will be terminated immediately.
If students are late for class because of use of the vending machines, use of the vending areas will be terminated immediately.
If Level 1 students are late for their bus at the end of class because of use of the vending machines, use of the vending areas will be terminated immediately.
If students leave trash on tables of the floor of the classroom, use of the vending machines will be terminated immediately.
Student Behavior Kitchen LabWhile you are at Culinary Arts classes at the Gettysburg Firehouse, I am responsible for your safety. There is a lot of activity going on while we are in production. The following rules must be followed:
Students will be assigned to production groups. The groups will be changed throughout the year. During production, students should work with their group. While grades are assigned to groups, individual grades will be adjusted based on professionalism,
participation, productivity, skills, finished product & clean up. If you wish to leave the classroom, you must first check the white board to see if any one else is out of
the classroom. If there is no name on the white board you can then ask permission from the Chef Instructor. When permission is given, write your name and the time in the appropriate space on the white board. When you return to the class, erase your name and time from the white board and inform the Chef Instructor that you are back in the class.
Clean as you go. If you are unsure how to safely use a piece of equipment, ask the Chef Instructor. If you are using a piece of equipment that has multiple pieces, you must clean it, re-assemble it and
return it to storage as soon as you are finished with it. All students will participate in critique and taste all foods.
Student Sous Chef ResponsibilitiesIt is our goal to help you develop the professional skills and habits that are so important to success in the industry. There are great opportunities in the Hospitality Industry for exemplary employees. It is crucial that you learn to lead and manage a team in the kitchen. It is equally important that you learn to learn to follow leadership and excel as a team member. You will be working with and for people with whom you do not necessarily get along. You are not expected to like every one, but you are expected to get along. Regardless, you need to learn to lead everyone effectively and cooperate as an exemplary team member. Every week there will be a Sous Chef group assigned from one of the production groups. The Sous Chef group will be responsible for the following (plus any other tasks assigned by the Chef Instructor).
In the Classroom Everyday a different member of the Sous Chef Group will review the recipes scheduled for
production. They will review scaling (if appropriate), methodology, ingredient substitutions (if appropriate), unusual or complicated instructions. To the best of their ability, they will answer any student questions.
In the Lab- During Production
The Sous Chef group will assist the chef Instructor in pre-production: keep the mis en place containers bin full; check plastic ware, paper goods and wraps; gather mis en place.
Wrap, label and properly put away all foods, especially proteins and all PHF’s as soon as possible. Assign a group member to oversee duties of the other production groups. Assign major
responsibilities to each group. Make sure that all groups are cleaning as they go. Verify the cleanliness and order of the lab before students are dismissed to the classroom.
12 of 14
In the Lab- During Cleanup Oversee and participate with assigned groups to make sure all food is properly, wrapped, labeled and
put away in the correct area.
Check for proper storage and placement of foods in the walk-in freezer, walk-in refrigerator and dry store areas, including cabinets, & shelves.
Check Paper/Plastic shelves and replace supplies as needed.
Cleaning in the Classroom & Locker Room The Sous Chef Group will make sure that the locker room is cleaned and swept, all lockers are closed
and there is nothing on the floors.
The Sous Chef group will make sure that all of the tables are pushed against the wall and that chairs are turned upside down on tables, all computers are properly stored and books put away in library, the floor is swept and the trash emptied as needed.
The Sous Chef Group will then dismiss the class at the appropriate time with permission of the Chef Instructor.
Before You Leave for the DayBefore you leave for the day, make sure:
Your area is clean. Our table and chairs are properly stored. Your uniform is put away and your locker is locked. If it is Friday, that you are taking your uniform home to clean. That you are aware of any homework assignments.
Culinary Library
The Culinary Library is available as a resource for both in-school and homework assignments. All materials should be handled with care and respect. All materials may be checked out for a week unless they are part of a current/ongoing in school/classroom assignment. In the Checkout Log, record your name, the date, the name of the book and the author and have it initialed by the Chef Instructor. When the book is returned, bring the book & log for the Chef Instructor to initial. Return the book to the correct section of the library. Indeed, all students are encouraged to use all of the materials and read as much about food as possible.
