High school’s student-run carryout restaurant serves more than food

At East Aurora High School, students not only prepare and deliver the food for its carryout eatery, The Iron Paw—they also learn how to run a business, reports the Chicago Tribune.

The 25 students who help in the Aurora, Ill., high school's restaurant are part of the school’s Restaurant Management 1 and 2 classes, taught by teacher Kristen Doucette, reports the Tribune.

The Iron Paw accepts orders from faculty, parents and staff, as well as serving made-from-scratch food, including falafel, pasta fagioli, cheesecake and ranch chicken sandwiches on French bread.

Officials say customers can either pick up their food or have it delivered in-school during a two-hour window.
