Note that Camp Verde High School students are eligible to enroll in VACTE culinary classes at the Sedona Center. However, because of travel time and schedules, it is currently not feasible for them to take classes there. Also, Camp Verde High School has a culinary facility on its campus. VACTE is working with a new teacher with the goal of qualifying the programs for dual enrollment. If successful, dual enrollment will give the students upon successful completion of the courses Yavapai Community College Credit.
