Nicolet ProStart Students Shine at Cheers 2 Hospitality 🍽️
On Saturday, November 7, Nicolet's ProStart Pro-Culinary students stepped out of the classroom kitchen and into a room full of restaurant professionals. The Wisconsin Restaurant Association invited Nicolet to run a food station at a special fundraising event called Cheers 2 Hospitality, held at Discovery World. It was an event that drew about 500 guests from Milwaukee's restaurant and hospitality industry.
Nicolet was one of three ProStart high school programs at the event. Our students ran a build-your-own bruschetta station: guests chose their bruschetta, and students built each one fresh in an assembly line. The choices included pepper-crusted beef tenderloin with a tarragon-shallot cream, tenderloin with whipped lemon chèvre and basil pesto,orange whipped cream cheese with pomegranate and toasted pistachio, a vegan spiced squash and Honeycrisp apple bruschetta, and gluten-free cucumber bites.
The work started days earlier in the Nicolet kitchen. Students worked in teams to bake hundreds of crostini, roast 14 pounds of beef tenderloin, and make every sauce, spread and garnish from scratch. At the event, they worked side by side on the line, each adding one layer, while teammates took orders, explained the dishes and allergens, and talked with industry professionals about the program.
The guests noticed. Students received many compliments, especially on the tarragon cream and the beef tenderloin. One of the students was even offered a job on the spot. Congratulations, chefs!
Events like this give students real industry experience and count toward the 400 work hours they need for the ProStart National Certificate of Achievement.
Thank you to the Wisconsin Restaurant Association, Discovery World and the Bartolotta team for including Nicolet. A special thank you to Gordon Food Service, which donated the ingredients.
School psychologists are unsung heroes who work tirelessly behind the scenes to support our students, helping them overcome challenges, thrive academically, and build brighter futures
