Career Day/Night

Every other month Platt Central's students come proudly dressed in their best interview attire to receive their awards they have worked so hard to earn.  Awards that are presented by each program instructor/coordinator include: Student of the Month, Winners Attitude, Perfect Attendance, Key 95 and Coordinators Honor Roll.  The Director’s Honor Roll is presented by our campus director, Joey Keefer and the Student Services Star Student is presented by the Student Service Director, Charity Patton.  During this month’s career day, the students were given an opportunity to hear about Infant Crisis Services, INC from their Outreach Coordinator, Mrs. Judith Cope and learn not only the services that they provide to babies in our community but how our students can get involved with this organization.

Jobs are FALLING Out of the Sky!

We've had some distinguished guests calling in and stopping by this week on the hunt for our fantastic culinarians!  James Kraham, Daniel Crowell, and Jason Hill from The Meat House joined Jodi Ackerman, Platt College's Career and Industry Representative, and me at Chefs di Domani for lunch.  The Meat House, a new Butcher/Boutique concept,  is opening their first Oklahoma location in Edmond later this month. 

Also exciting was our trip to see Chef Andrew Murin  at the Chesapeake Arena.  Jodi and I braved the construction zones to visit with the Chef and his staff regarding their upcoming needs for the holiday and concert season.  We enjoyed getting a behind the scenes tour of the new construction, including the new Thunder Suites and restaurant concepts.  We look forward to hearing about all the exciting events our students will help bring to life!

Finally a brand new Mongolian Barbecue concept will be opening in Quail Springs Mall just in time for the Holidays.  HuHot will be the "hottest" place to eat for shoppers this year!  We were honored to have Noah Smith and Brandon Parker visit our campus and wish them all the best in their new business venture.
