Executive Chef Dan Giutsi of Whittle School & Studios Is Hungry for a Change to School Lunches

Hungry for school reform? What about school lunch?

Chef Dan Giusti will be visiting the District next Tuesday, December 11 to share his transition from heading a two Michelin star restaurant, to revolutionizing the way K-12 students eat.

After years in fine dining, Giusti founded Brigaid in 2016: a company which recruits trained chefs to lead institutional kitchens under the premise that students deserve real, wholesome food, cooked from scratch with care and passion.

Giusti will also share his vision for Whittle School & Studios, where he was recently named Executive Chef in Residence. 

All are welcome to experience a unique presentation from a chef who is innovating how the future leaders of tomorrow eat during the school day.

Hosted at the Whittle School & Studios Parent Information Center at the Mazza Gallerie from 6-8 p.m., Whittle School & Studios is delighted to partner with Dan in his mission to reimagine school lunch.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
