Chef Lex Gets a BIG Upgrade, Thanks to YOU!!

BEFORE ....

Can you even believe that Chef Lex has been cooking a scratch-made lunch for 50+ kids a day (and catered the Spring Benefit!) on a tiny little hot plate?!


ree

AFTER!!!!!!!!


Well, not anymore!!! At this year's Spring Benefit, CWS families came through for Chef Lex (and our school!) in a huge way, raising $5,000 to help purchase a REAL stove and give our school kitchen some much-needed love. Just look at this beautiful, high end commercial stove, griddle, and oven that you helped purchase (for a bargain!) for Chef Lex — and for all of our students and faculty at CWS!


Thank you so much, CWS Families!! 💜

Your support makes a HUGE difference for our school!

Deviation management is a key component of GxP systems. Auditors examine how companies handle non-conformances, from https://bgenerous.com/financing investigation to root cause analysis and CAPA implementation. Consultants offer tools and training to strengthen deviation tracking, helping organizations maintain compliance and improve their quality assurance processes over time.

Love seeing the vibrant energy and creativity coming through in each Waldorf Weekly update! It’s amazing how the school blends learning with community and imagination. That kind of unique expression reminds me of the Broken Planet Into The Abyss Hoodie bold, thoughtful, and full of character. Keep up the wonderful work!

Car sharing services are also growing in Dubai, offering short-term rentals charged by the minute or hour. This car rental dubai is ideal for quick trips, errands, or tourists who don’t need a vehicle for an entire day but still want convenient transport options.

They’re also a good source of energy. The healthy fats from the peanut butter help keep you full longer, while http://feastfast.co/collections/sugar-free-cookies the low sugar content prevents spikes and crashes. They make great pre- or post-workout snacks for active individuals seeking better alternatives to sugary protein bars.

Fitted covers prevent pest intrusion. Rodents and insects are often drawn to the warmth and moisture of spas. A https://thecoverbrothers.ca/ tight seal deters these unwanted visitors, helping to maintain a clean and healthy environment inside and around the spa area.
