The Next Food Network Chef Could Be Right Here in Southern Indiana
Did you know that the EVSC offers a Culinary Arts course for high school students who attend school at North and South Gibson, Spencer, Posey, Vanderburgh, and Warrick counties?
Culinary Arts Courses
Ok, this is a class that actually makes me want to enroll in high school again. This is not a Home Economics class, students who complete the Culinary Arts courses at Southern Indiana Career & Technical Center earn dual credits from Vincennes University. Some students could jump right into a career from high school, or they could choose to keep expanding their palate. Either way, the hands-on training can set students up for some pretty amazing career options.

The Lunch Box
The culinary students create delicious lunches that the public is invited to try. The Lunch Box is a restaurant located inside of SICTC. During the school year, The Lunch Box is open for business. Now, this is not your typical school lunch. The menus are quite fancy and affordable too.
The Lunch Box Opening Soon
The students are just getting acclimated to the new class, but The Lunch Box will open in September.
The Lunch Box is open to the public, and you get a really nice meal. Each lunch comes with an entre', 2 sides, dessert, and a drink. It's super-affordable at only $8. Keep in mind that they can only accept cash.
