Lynx Express teaches workplace skills

The Lynx Express cafe at Oley Valley School District provides students with an opportunity to perform work-related jobs where they make smoothies, coffee, and tea for the high school staff and administration staff. Currently, the students are learning the preparation tasks for dehydrating fruit and making fruit leather. They are also learning how to follow recipes for baking cookies and brownies. By participating in the Lynx Express, students are learning workplace skills and also communication skills, when delivering products to their customers. They also help with community projects through the Oley Fair and Oley Valley Community Education Foundation.
