Youth Programming/Culinary Adventures
Etiquette For Middle Schoolers
Etiquette for Middle Schoolers is a 2-part program. Level One is offered in fall 2017
and Level Two in winter 2018. The levels of the program build upon each other, but
can also be taken independently. Each 8-week level focuses on the development
of a different set of skills. Middle schoolers face challenging social and societal
issues, and we expect them to behave responsibly and maturely despite their
tender age. This 2-Level Etiquette Program is designed to raise awareness about
peer pressure, improve communication with peers and adults, and learn more about
the common sense policies and actions an individual can take to feel more secure
in social situations. Through group discussion and role playing, we will strengthen
your child's communication, presentation, and social skills. Furthermore, we will
empower and inspire students by giving them the knowledge on proper manners at
home, at school, and in their social lives. The last class is held at a local upscale
restaurant where students practice and perfect their newly acquired skills while
participating in a four-course meal.
New addition for 2017: Both Level One and Two will include a dance class taught
by Milan Locic, Professional Ballroom Instructor with 25+ years' experience. In
order to register you must contact the Etiquette Academy directly at 617-608-3920

Etiquette For Young Adults
Etiquette for Young Adults is a 2-part program. Level One is offered in fall 2017
and Level Two in winter 2018. The levels of the program build upon each other, but
can also be taken independently. Each 8-week level focuses on the development
of a different set of skills. Today's high schoolers are juggling hectic schedules.
From earning scholarships to excelling in sports or preforming arts, high schoolers
are accomplishing amazing things. However, face-to-face communication outside
of their social circle may not come easily. This 2-part program will discuss what it
means to be a good friend and a good partner, and will provide specific rules and
actions a young adult can take to feel more secure in day-to-day life situations.
Furthermore, we will teach students proper interview etiquette and positive
communication preparing students for job and college interviews. Students will
learn leadership and teamwork skills, and how to feel comfortable when speaking
in front of the audience. The last class is held at a local upscale restaurant where
students practice and perfect their newly acquired skills while participating in a
four-course meal.
