Dear All:
Our son, who is now 20, has learning disabilities.
He has been baking since age 9, had a small dog biscuit business, and is currently finishing a 26 hour certificate baking/pastry program. He also has worked 1 to 3 days a week at a highly ranked local bakery.
This summer he has a 3 month internship at a catering company working with a pastry team of 6.
He will then be doing a one year internship away from home preferably in a hotel pastry internship program (he had interest from a hotel this summer but didn't want to be away from home.)
Then he is intent upon going to Culinary Institute of America.
I've noted that Johnson and Wales has robust accommodations for students with disabilities, and I don't see the same at CIA.
So I'd appreciate any feedback or advice! Thanks!
