CELL PHONE POLICY
If you’re signing up for Jr. Chef Central Summer Camp, you’re joining us to meet new friends and learn a life skill that we hope you will enjoy the rest of your life! With that in mind, we ask our Jr. Chef’s to keep there cell phones in their personal cubbies (assigned on the first day) and not on their person, during class time or in the kitchen. Jr. Chef’s will have access to their phones, but they should be checked and returned to their cubbies promptly.
