Chem/Food Science partners with Zentis

Zentis Food Solutions is proud to be a community sponsor for the Weidner School of Inquiry @PHS. I was immensely impressed with the professionalism of both the department, as well as the students. I was treated with a great amount of respect, and felt that the students truly had an interest in what I had to say. The environment that the students are supplied with is a huge asset to prepare them for college, as well as the professional world. Teamwork is encouraged, as well as free and open thinking.

In my own professional field, the skills the students are given will be huge assets in their future. If a student is already prepared to work well in a team based environment, and does not feel judged for their opinions, they will be miles ahead of the average graduate. 

Pairing Food Science with the general Chemistry course allows the students to see real world applications of what they are studying. When you can see what your lessons can accomplish in the professional world, it makes the learning more enjoyable and valuable.

Students, thanks for your wonderful questions and attention.

Teachers, thank you for giving me the opportunity to share my own passion with a new generation.

Sidenote, I'm jealous that I didn't have this chance in high school.
