READING AND COMPREHENSION
FOOD FROM THE ‘HOOD
Student owned and operated
Many
high school students worry about their future and what they are going to do for
a loving. Only a few are quite sure about their vocation. Whatever the case may
be, college education is a real challenge for most of teenagers because it is
usually highly expensive.
This is what led the students of
Crenshaw High School in South Central Los Angeles to start the Food from the
‘Hood project in 1992. FFTH is a company owned and operated by the student. It
produces natural salad dressing with no preservatives or chemical additives.
All work is valued equally, so
every student-owner must learn what’s needed to operate every part of the
business. Therefore, garden work and media relations carry equal point value.
At
the end of each academic year, based upon the percentage of total points earned by each student, the
“profits” are awarded as scholarships to a maximum of $15,000 a year per
student. Any remaining “profits” are used to fund the community initiatives.
Up
to now, thirty-one program participants have completed high school and ate
taking post high school courses, funded in part by food from the ‘hood.
The
program stresses development of values, skills, self-discipline and socially
responsible business practices by operating, managing and maintaining a natural
products line as well a ¼ acre organic garden.
Students-owners
develop the recipes and marketing concepts for all products that carry the
“Food from the ‘hood” name.
At
the present Food from the hood products are available regionally at
supermarkets and natural food stores or by mail order.

ONE MAN IN A BOAT
Fishing
is my favourite Sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this
does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they
catch old boots and rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything — not
even old boots.
After
having spent whole morning on the river, I always go home with an empty bag.
“You must give up fishing!” my friends say. “It’s a waste of time.” But they
don’t realize one important thing. I’m not really interested in fishing. I’m
only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
