Lindbergh Schweitzer Elementary School took the recent Valentines
Day to honor its volunteers and show off some of the school's alumni,
now members of the award-winning Madison High School Culinary Arts
Program.

The
annual celebration was attended by approximately 75 volunteers who were
heard to say "delicious!" "yummy!" "wonderful!" and "I want the
recipe!" when they sat down to enjoy the tea delights and sandwiches
such as chicken/cranberry and walnut salad, and egg and dill salad,
along with trays of delicious sliced fruits and berries. What would an
afternoon tea be without desserts? The culinary students prepared the
popular red velvet and lemon cupcake bites.
Madison's
culinary arts program recently won the San Diego Teen Iron Chef
competition and is one of six programs in the San Diego Unified School
District.
Entertained by the Magnet Musicians,
Lindbergh Schweitzer's own guitar students led by music instructor Linda
Williams – herself a volunteer – the volunteers went home with lots of
raffle prizes, table favors, and certificates.

"Honoring these
fabulous volunteers is a tradition at Lindbergh Schweitzer, one which
models the importance of service to our communities," said principal
Deanne Rohde. "Volunteers are another reason Lindbergh Schweitzer
students are successful in the classroom and in life. Thank you,
volunteers, for all you do for our students and our school!"
