🌎🍴 The Great Flavor Road Trip made a stop at Summer School! 🗺️✨ Our students hit the road without ever having to leave school. 🚗💨 Each classroom became a pit stop serving up iconic dishes from across the U.S. From coast to coast, students explored culture, flavor, and creativity through food. A road trip never tasted so good! 🍴 #GreatFlavorRoadTrip #SummerSchoolAdventures #ConnectingMindInspiringGrowth #BOCESProud
