Coffee Talk

Ms. Delery relaxes before class in the well decorated faculty coffee shop.

Students brew coffee as Mrs. Barone is inteviewed about the Malawi initiative for local reporters.

Ever wish you had a gourmet coffee shop right in your building with expert brewers who'd make a cup just the way you like it even deliver it to you?

 At Piedmont, we do. Piedmont's unique and cozy #Coffee4Ed faculty coffee shop was featured on WCCB's News Rising yesterday.

As Ray Charles vinyl spinned on the vintage record player, students demonstrated their exacting brewing standards and talked about the cause they support. Principal Jackie Barone and Humanities teacher Jonathan George shared what the Coffee4Ed initiative  teaches our IB students about global community and service.

 Proceeds from the coffee4ed program benefit Equitas in their work with Piedmont's Club Malawi to build a school in Malawi.

The relaxing  break room is the work of many volunteers, The walls were painted by Assistant Principal Mr. Joyce, decorated by an interior decorator and Piedmont parent.  Donations of grinders, water, an other supplies made the vision a reality.
