Meet Amber Clark, Cafeteria Manager at Buckingham Elementary
4 years with Worcester County Public Schools
“I love when we're able to get a child to try something new. Whether it's a new entree or fruit they've never had, or even a vegetable.”
What She Loves About Her Work
Of course, the kids, but also the ladies I get to work with day to day in the kitchen.
What People May Not Realize
It's very busy, very fast paced. We have a lot of work to do in a short time to do it.
What She Loves Most About Her School Community
I love how supportive everyone is. Whether it's Dr. Jackson jumping on the cafeteria line to help serve, or the custodians and teachers helping get the kids through the line a little faster.
