King Arthur Baking Company's Bake for Good program is a valuable educational outreach initiative designed to teach students essential baking skills while fostering a spirit of community and giving. Here's a summary of its key aspects:

• Core Goals:
  • The program centers around three fundamental objectives: learn, bake, and share.
  • Students learn the math and science principles behind bread making.
  • They gain hands-on experience by baking bread themselves.
  • They are encouraged to share their baked goods with those in need, promoting acts of kindness.
• Educational Focus:
  • The program integrates practical learning with academic concepts, demonstrating the real-world application of math and science.
  • It teaches students fundamental baking skills, including measuring, mixing, kneading, and shaping dough.
• Community Impact:
  • A key component of the program is the emphasis on sharing. Students are encouraged to share their baked goods with their community, fostering a sense of social responsibility.
  • This sharing can be through donations to food shelves, or acts of kindness to people around them.

Special thanks to Alex Poole, Advanced Academics teacher, for bringing the Bake for Good program to our students. Bake for Good instills students with valuable life skills while instilling the importance of giving back to their communities.
