Wakulla High School’s Culinary Arts students played an important role in the success of the Wakulla County Schools inaugural Teacher of the Year Gala, preparing and serving the meal for over 200 guests.
Under the guidance of their Instructor Ryan Warner, these students showcased not only their culinary skills, but also the teamwork, responsibility, and attention to detail that define the Hospitality and Tourism program at Wakulla High School. From preparation to service, they represented our school and program with excellence.
The spirit of collaboration was on full display throughout the evening, with Michele Falk, principal of Wakulla High School, jumping in alongside students to lend a hand and support the team during the event.
Opportunities like this allow students to apply classroom learning in real-world settings while serving their community—an experience that builds confidence and prepares them for future careers in the culinary and hospitality fields.
We are proud of our Culinary students for their hard work and for helping make this special night a meaningful celebration for educators across Wakulla County Schools. 👏

Wakulla County Schools extends a heartfelt thank you to the Rotary Club of Wakulla for their generous contribution of nearly $7,000 to support the new hydroponic garden at Wakulla High School.
This innovative project—celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony in December—is already making an impact, allowing culinary students to experience hands-on, sustainable learning from seed to plate. Partnerships like this show what’s possible when our schools and community come together to invest in students and the future.
Thank you to the Rotary Club of Wakulla and all who helped bring this vision to life! 🌿
