Last week, our cafeterias were transformed into a local BBQ smokehouse! We treated students at the Elementary Schools on Thursday and the MS/HS on Friday to a true labor of love: 16-hour slow-cooked beef brisket.
We started by hand-rubbing each cut with a signature blend of mustard and savory spices before letting it cook low and slow until it was melt-in-your-mouth tender. Even better? We’re proud to partner with our neighbors at Weatherlow Farms in Westport, MA, to bring high-quality, grass-fed beef straight from their pastures to our students' plates!
On March 2 we celebrated Dr. Seuss’s Birthday with a Green Eggs and Ham meal at the Franklin Elementary Schools. We also did a lucky tray and gave out Dr. Seuss books as prizes. Our staff joined in the fun and dressed up like Cat in the Hat!
