Cherokee High School Culinary Instructor Kyra Jenkins and our amazing culinary students just took 1ST PLACE at the Tennessee Junior Chef Competition!
Beating out eight teams from across the state, our students had just 90 minutes to prep a delicious meal using local ingredients that met strict National School Lunch guidelines. Their incredible skills and hard work earned them the state title, the traveling trophy, and a massive $48,000 in scholarships!
It’s an exciting day to be a Cherokee Chef! GO CHIEFS!
