After-School Fall Cooking Class at Shady Grove Elementary (Keller ISD)

Q: Can you accommodate food allergies?

CookLearnGrow can only accommodate nut allergies; it cannot enroll students who require an EpiPen for severe food allergies other than nuts and does not accommodate egg, gluten, or other food allergies.

At Shady Grove Elementary in Keller ISD, weekday afternoons transform the school kitchen into a lively culinary studio where young cooks in grades K-4 learn to measure, chop, cook, and bake with real tools and clear instruction. CookLearnGrow’s Fall 2026 session meets Mondays, Sept 14–Nov 9 (no class Oct 12), from 3:30 to 4:30 PM for eight hands-on classes that celebrate American flavors during the organization’s America’s 250th program. Each hour pairs practical technique—kid-safe knife work, measuring and mixing, stovetop basics—with teamwork drills and plating practice so students gain real skills and kitchen confidence. The learning space reads like a kid-sized test kitchen: low prep tables with individual stations, a small convection oven, silicone tools, labeled ingredients, and clear sanitation zones. That kit of equipment and flow of stations lets instructors break recipes into repeatable steps so every child touches a task and learns timing, cleanup, and flavor adjustments. The curriculum highlights fall produce and pantry staples—think apples, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, cinnamon, and basic dairy and grains—adapted into approachable American-inspired recipes. Instructors balance curiosity with clear rules, making the room safe without dulling discovery. Important health and enrollment notes are explicit: CookLearnGrow can accommodate nut allergies only; it cannot enroll students who require an EpiPen for severe food allergies other than nuts, and it does not accommodate egg, gluten, or other food allergies. Bring an apron, closed-toe shoes, and have long hair pulled back; the session fee is $295 and includes supplies. To enroll click the date on the calendar via the referral link or email [email protected] with questions. Watch small, steady changes: a hesitant kindergartner gains precision measuring salt, a third grader learns to balance sweet and acid, and students practice teamwork and cleanup routines that translate to home kitchens. For visiting families, the class is a focused way to sample local after-school life at Shady Grove Elementary in Keller, Texas while your child builds a recipe box and new skills. Sessions run for eight weeks on Mondays from 3:30–4:30 PM; there is no class on Oct 12. Refunds are not available within two weeks of the start date. CookLearnGrow’s format lets children practice life skills, builds food literacy, and connects families to a practical, low-cost enrichment option in the Keller ISD community. Sign up early; space is limited and the hands-on, seasonal approach makes this program a memorable after-school pick for kids who want to cook and learn. Parents should note the class fee covers ingredients and supplies, and instructors follow basic sanitation and hand-washing protocols. If you need a schedule accommodation or have questions about mobility or special needs, contact [email protected] before enrolling so staff can advise. Early registration secures your child’s station.
