Culinary Arts Academy
The Culinary Arts/Hospitality Management Academy is a unique program allowing students to gain hands-on experience through the operation of the Five Star Cafe, a 100-seat restaurant located within Freehold High School. The four-year college-level curriculum prepares students for entry in the restaurant/hospitality field and post-secondary education. Graduating students annually receive over $250,000 in scholarships and articulation awards. Many graduates of the academy attend the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY and Johnson and Wales University in Providence, RI and Miami, FL. Facilities of the Academy feature the 100-seat dining room, state-of-the-art commercial kitchen, bakery, and lecture room. On March 14, 2007 the Culinary Arts Academy hosted Governor of New Jersey Jon Corzine and members of the New Jersey State Legislature.

“On every hand we observe a truly wise practice, in education, in morals, and in the arts of life, the embodied wisdom of many an ancient philosopher.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“...I have come to make distinctions between what I call the academy and literature, the moral equivalents of church and God. The academy may lie, but literature tries to tell the truth.”
