Recently, 56 students enrolled in Mrs. Johnson’s Kewanee High School Food Classes earned their Food Handler License.

Megan Washburn and Alex Lindbom from the Henry/Stark County Health Department facilitated the week-long Food Handler Training Course that culminated with the students receiving their license.

All 56 license fees ($15 each) were paid by the Kewanee McDonald’s restaurant.

All employees working in a food establishment must complete this training. The license will come in handy if the students apply for restaurant employment.
