Englewood students experience fine dining.

Principal Mrs. Katy Naff dines with  Mrs. Martin-Baker's classroom, who won the fine dining experience.


Sodexo’s fine dining and etiquette program selected a classroom at Englewood Elementary School and offered a gourmet meal to students on April 23, 2103. The students dressed for the occasion and enjoyed their four-course meal.

Prior to the fine dining event, the selected students learned basic skills to utilize while dining, such as use of utensils, table manners, and how to eat certain foods. The program rewards and educates students with a foundation of good manners and etiquette that will contribute to their future success.
