**Bend Senior High Culinary Students Shine in Annual Cookie Bake-Off**

Bend, Oregon – The culinary students at Bend Senior High showcased their baking talents in the annual Bend Senior High (BSH) Cookie Bake-off held yesterday. Students demonstrated their skills in creating a wide array of cookies as part of the competition.

This year, judging duties were taken on by Bend-La Pine Schools Superintendent Cook, who had the enviable task of sampling the expertly prepared treats.

The Cookie Bake-off is a yearly tradition that allows students in the culinary program to put their skills to the test, all while celebrating the holiday season. The event has become a favorite among students, staff, and the community alike.

Organizers of the event hinted at the possibility of welcoming more judges next year, inviting cookie enthusiasts to participate in this sweet tradition.
