July 2016

The little red school house is being transformed! We've had a problem for years with the brick on the exterior of the building wearing away and moisture wicking into the building, potentially causing a health hazard.  After searching for an affordable and lasting solution, we settled on a product called EIFS, a stucco like product. The new surface will not only solve this problem for many years to come, but also improve our energy efficiency and give us a new look. We are thankful for the effort of all of those working to make this happen especially Ed Gavin and the crew at CSC Construction along with the craftsman at Carter Contracting. Though the building will have a new look, it's the same great program.  Just like we ask of our students, we do the best with what we have and work to improve ourselves to the best of our ability each day....

After entering a writing piece developed in Mr. Don's writing class at The Community School, student Sadie Greenwood was a finalist in a writing contest held as part of the 2016 Urban Squash Individual Nationals. Sadie participated through SquashWise, a local youth program that has worked with her for several years.  This summer Sadie is participating in a five-week research course at the University of Baltimore that will examine "Issues of Inequality in Housing in Baltimore." We are very proud of Sadie's hard work and talent!...

There will be a special play performed today at the Single Carrot Theatre that will include TCS student Janiah Tillery.  Janiah has been part of a 2 week ensemble class at SCT along with a group of high school students from the Baltimore area.  We are especially grateful to Genevieve de Mahy and the folks at Single Carrot for providing scholarships once again this year to enable our students to participate. We're proud of you Janiah!...

Awarded a coveted spot at the Telluride Sophomore Seminar, student Dyrrell Moon is in Bloomington, Indiana for the next six weeks. This seminar is in its twenty-fourth year and this summer will focus on "The Black Struggle for Freedom: An Interdisciplinary Perspective." Dyrrell is getting a college experience staying in the dorms and studying at Indiana University.  He is enjoying living and working with a diverse group of students from across the country as they participate in lectures, discussions, research and debates. It is a real honor and once-in-a-lifetime experience for Dyrrell. We are all very proud of him!...
