Engaging the High School Population, Presented by Gonzaga College High School

Amanda Woodard, Gonzaga University

Seeing how a Campus Kitchen works on a high school campus compared to a university campus was wonderful to see! It’s so neat that we have the Campus Kitchen at Gonzaga College High School in the CKP network, and we’re excited to engage more high school students at our Campus Kitchen at Gonzaga University.

The PowerPoint presentation was about the Campus Kitchen at Gonzaga College High School (GCHS) and what works for high schools. It was great to get a point of view from high school volunteers as we look to recruit them and also work on expansion into high schools. I found out about the program at GCHS, how to find volunteers who are really involved in their high school and raise program awareness, and how to recruit those volunteers. I will take back to Northwestern:

• How to campaign and recruit volunteers – use catchy & interactive fliers/advertising
• Rueb’s Rules for fliers/pamphlets- contain important info, catchy saying, quick and easy to read (we got a great example)
• This is useful to know as well look to start Campus Kitchens at other high schools
