Culinary Arts Academy
The Culinary Arts/Hospitality Management Academy is a unique program allowing students to gain hands-on experience through the operation of the Five Star Cafe, a 100-seat restaurant located within Freehold High School. The four-year college-level curriculum prepares students for entry in the restaurant/hospitality field and post-secondary education. Graduating students annually receive over $250,000 in scholarships and articulation awards. Many graduates of the academy attend the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY and Johnson and Wales University in Providence, RI and Miami, FL. Facilities of the Academy feature the 100-seat dining room, state-of-the-art commercial kitchen, bakery, and lecture room. On March 14, 2007 the Culinary Arts Academy hosted Governor of New Jersey Jon Corzine and members of the New Jersey State Legislature.

Famous quotes containing the words culinary, arts and/or academy:
“There are many of us who cannot but feel dismal about the future of various cultures. Often it is hard not to agree that we are becoming culinary nitwits, dependent upon fast foods and mass kitchens and megavitamins for our basically rotten nourishment.”
—M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
“The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modelled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“When the State wishes to endow an academy or university, it grants it a tract of forest land: one saw represents an academy, a gang, a university.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
