Elk City Intermediate Gifted and Talented students wrapped up Lesson #2 on etiquette and the hospitality & tourism industry. FCCLA officers presented an excellent lesson on table manners, and we were honored to hear from Sandy Werner with Elk City Tourism about the impact tourism has on our community.
The next day, students took their learning to Oklahoma State University! They practiced dining etiquette at Taylor’s, met with hospitality & tourism faculty and students, toured campus, and participated in an amusement parks class.
