The Coffee Cart program at a high school has been revived and revamped by paraeducators Genesis Berrios and Carole Frascati, along with Homebase students. The program, which was first created in 2017 by former teacher Nick Bruno, now serves students in the Life Skills class for a dollar each for an hour. The newest version of the coffee cart now includes syrups, milk options, biscottis, and gluten-free snacks. The program makes no profit, putting all the money made into buying supplies and not selling anything to students.
The program not only helps teachers save time and money by buying coffee every morning but also teaches students various skills, such as counting money and greeting and interacting with customers. The students put a lot of effort into the program, and the plan is to continue serving teachers every week, hopefully for ongoing years, as long as the students enjoy helping out and staff are still enjoying it.
The program brings joy to the campus, bringing students out of the classroom and allowing them to enjoy being outside. The students put a lot of hard work, time, and effort into it, and the program is expected to continue for years.
