🎨🇲🇽 ¡Qué experiencia increíble! Spanish 3 students from Woodhaven High School recently explored la cultura local on a field trip to the Detroit Institute of Arts and Southwest Detroit! At the DIA, students analyzed artwork and admired the powerful Diego Rivera murals, deepening their understanding of Mexican and local culture through art. The adventure continued in Southwest Detroit with a delicious lunch at Los Galanes and sweet treats from La Gloria Bakery—an unforgettable opportunity to try authentic Mexican dishes and pastries! A huge gracias to our wonderful chaperones: Ms. Smith, Mrs. Almonte, and Mrs. Crawford! #WoodhavenWarriors #ExperientialLearning #Spanish3 #DIA #SouthwestDetroit #CulturaMexicana

✨🍽 Fine dining... elementary style! 🍽✨ Each year, Sodexo partners with our elementary schools to host a special fine dining experience for select students. Principals nominate students for a variety of reasons - perfect attendance, academic excellence, or sometimes just because a student needs a special moment to shine. At Yake Elementary’s event on April 24, students enjoyed an upscale 3-course meal complete with table service, soft music, and lessons in fine dining etiquette. Chef Chris Brown added an extra touch of magic this year by preparing tableside caesar salads and torching crème brûlée right in front of the students - such a hit! 🔥🍮 Our young diners dressed to impress, learned which fork goes with which course, and were joined by their principals for this unforgettable meal. These events are some of our favorites each year—and it's clear our students love them too! 💜 #WarriorWay #FineDiningExperience #FutureChefs #WoodhavenPride #SodexoCares #YakeGators
