The kitchen was smelling extra delicious last week when pastry Chef Semra joined us for a hands-on baking class, the students learned so much. Her expertise in all things sweet is truly impressive, and it's experiences like this that help our students grow their skills and find their own culinary voice.

It's been a few weeks since we had a special guest in our training program, but we're still talking about it. Chef Steve Cooney from Bowman's Bar and Grill stopped by and shared some incredible insights with our students. It's moments like these that truly make a difference in a student's education.

A huge thank you to Chef Steve for taking the time to invest in our students' futures. Your dedication to your craft and to the community is truly inspiring.
