What is Our Neighborhood School?
IT’S A SCHOOL!
The private school is dedicated to individualized attention as well as a creative curriculum. Students are involved in the running of the restaurant and catering, maintenace of the school grounds, they are stewards of the Rain Garden which is located behind the Pittsboro Community House, they participate in the Jr. Solar Sprint Program where they are building a solar model car and will compete in a race at NC State in the spring. Right now my 7th and 8th graders are hard at work with Geometry and each are taking a different foreign language via the computer. We also work on our keyboarding skills. We are participating in the Journey North Tulip Project which is an experiment involving students across the Northern Hemisphere tracking the growth of tulips as the season changes from winter to spring.
IT’S A PIZZERIA!
Our Neighborhood School is a private school with an added bonus of having wonderful food in their cafeteria that is available to the public every day. Come join us for lunch or dinner. All of the food is in carry out containers so you can give us a call before leaving work, stop at our take-out window, pick up your dinner, go home and open your favorite beverage, slide the dinner onto a nice plate (or just eat out of the foil container) and enjoy. Fast and easy. We make our own fresh rolls every day and all of our pasta is made from semolina flour and local eggs. When you order your food, the pasta is still in dough form and we put it through the rollers of our pasta machine and make your individual pasta WHEN you order it. It doesn’t get much fresher than that. All of our sauces are made to order as well, except my grandmother’s long cooking spaghetti sauce with her wonderful meatballs.
WHAT’S HAPPENING AT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SCHOOL?
COMPLIMENTARY CHRISTMAS EVE DINNER
If you joined us last year, I’m sure you remember what a great time that was had by all. We had almost 100 people come and partake in our complimentary, “Thank You and Merry Christmas Dinner” last Christmas Eve. My husband Robert gives me a donation and I spend it all on making a fabulous feast. If your pantry is a bit bare, or you just don’t feel like cooking Christmas Eve before the big bash on Christmas Day, then come on down, load up a take-home container, go home, grab your favorite beverage, prop your feet up and enjoy! The food will be ready at 5:00 and end at 7:00 or when the food is gone. A donation jar will be available if you feel the need to pay a little, but absolutely not necessary. Afterwards we are going to go home, and wait for Santa to arrive. Merry Christmas from Our Neighborhood School.
CATERING
Don’t forget to give us a call for any of your Christmas or New Year party needs. Stuffed mushrooms (sausage or vegetarian), pans of lasagna, Chicken Bianco, Tortellini Kabobs, tiramisu, cannolis and many other items. Some items you can bake at home or we can have them hot and ready to eat when you pick them up. We will be open for catering for you, no matter how small the group, even though the restaurant will be closed over the holiday from December 24-January 4. Give us at least one day notice and all phone numbers are listed below.
COOKING CLASSES
Our cooking classes are great fun but I am not going to schedule a cooking class this month because I think everyone life might be a bit too hectic during this holiday season, but you might want to pick up a Gift Certificate for a Cooking Class for a friend or a loved one. They are $50 and we make at least 3 courses with some hands on experience, items to take home. You will get to eat some great food and meet some new friends. A great time is always had by all.
COUPON AND MENU UPDATE
If you want to be on my e-mail list just let me know. Every month I will send you our new menu along with a coupon and our newsletter keeping you informed of what is happening here at Our Neighborhood School.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
