Thank you to all of our friends at Baltimore Center Stage for inviting us to attend the play Our Town today! It was an amazing performance that captivated all of the students. It was entertaining and thought provoking at the same time. This contemporary and homegrown version of the Thornton Wilder work was interpreted and made recognizable for our students by director Stevie-Walker Webb, the actors and all those who put on the performance. The play is running through early October and we unanimously recommend that you go see it! Center Stage has enhanced the educational experience of our students for years through inviting us to attend their plays, providing playwriting seminars, giving a private tour of their departments and facility and by their staff visiting our school for conversation. We are so grateful for Baltimore Center Stage!! ...
Tonight had to be one of the best Sponsor/Student meetings we ever had! There was a lot of personal sharing by students, parents and sponsors about overcoming difficulties on the path to success. The support and sense of community were inspiring. The meeting started with an advanced special preview of TCS Student News for this week by Chase and Kevin that received rave reviews! This year is off to a great start! We have much to be thankful for! ...
We had a really terrific "Conversation with.." two recent alumni today - Claude Nicholson (Class of '21) and Ronan Guilfoyle (Class of '22). They talked about their experiences in college as well as at TCS. The students had a lot of questions about both. Claude and Ronan gave a lot of advice and insight into how to make the most of your years at TCS and how it will prepare you for life and college if you do. Ronan is in college with a dual major in Cinematic Arts and English. Claude is in his second year at Loyola University in a 5 year Bachelor's/Master's program in accounting. It was a real pleasure having these two graduates in for a conversation. We are very proud of them. ...

On the same stage where Amelia Earhart once spoke, Marian Anderson sang and Chris Rock performed, stood the students of The Community School! Touring The Lyric on Thursday was the first of a year long, every other week seminar conducted by talented artists and performers Denise Gantt and Ebony Evans and The Lyric Foundation for our students. The students walked through this century plus old Baltimore landmark performing arts center getting to see the areas not usually opened to the public - behind the stage, practice areas and the dressing rooms. As part of the day, the students also each did a mini-performance. This is our second year working with The Lyric and we deeply appreciate their kindness to our students and school. ...
Friend of the school and regular TCS guest teacher, Dr. Al Scott, professor of Immunology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health came in Wednesday to hold a seminar on monkeypox. The students were keenly interested in this disease that has been in the news a lot lately. Dr. Scott explained its origins, symptoms, and prevention as well as what is known about how it spreads. The students asked a lot of great questions. Dr. Scott always leaves us so well informed about immunology and communicable diseases in the news....
