Frameworks

The Culinary Arts Frameworks identify the competencies that students will have the opportunity to learn in a four-year time span. 

Articulation Agreements

State articulation agreements are a uniform and consistent way for students in our Culinary Arts program to enroll in any Massachusetts community college and be awarded credits for work completed at Chicopee Comprehensive High School. Our Culinary Arts program has additional local articulation agreements with Holyoke Community College and Keene State College, which recognize credits beyond the standard 3 credit state recognition.

These agreements allow for a seamless continuation of education for our students.
