William Vanzella, international soccer player and Baltimore Blast goalie, returned to the school on Friday. Once again, he shared stories about his life growing up in Brazil and his career that included playing on the Italian national team, in Japan and then here in Baltimore. Mr. Vanzella captivated the students' interest as he shared the lessons of his life and his strong values and habits. He is an inspiration, and we were deeply honored to have him here. The impact of his powerful story will be lasting. We deeply appreciate his generous sharing of time with us. Special thanks to Don and Sande Riesett for inviting Mr. Vanzella on behalf of the school. ...

The students were very fortunate to have special guest lecturer Dr. Kathleen Riley come in from Delaware yesterday to speak to the American Sign Language classes. ASL I learned about the basic function of the ear, hearing loss, and treatment and technology such as the cochlear implant. Dr. Riley then spoke to both ASL classes about genetics and deafness. This really enhanced the understanding of those studying biology as well. Dr. Riley is adjunct professor in audiology at Salus University and the University of Delaware and has spent her lifetime working as an audiologist with deaf children mostly through the Delaware School for the Deaf. She has worked with Peggy Lashbrook for many years. One of the special features of Peggy's ASL classes is a focus on deaf culture and this was also an important part of today's presentation. Thank you Kathi and Peggy! ...

Here is Danny’s thoughtful essay. MY TOWN My town is my room. I don’t really do things outside like most kids in my age range. Because of this, I don’t know any streets or any people in my neighborhood. My room suffices as a town in my opinion. It’s where I do everything I like. It’s where I read Manga, where I look into philosophy, where I eat, where I sleep, and where I watch videos. It’s ironic in a way. Because of social media, people’s “worlds” have become smaller. They have access to limitless communication and knowledge of the world at the touch of a button. In some ways, this is negative. I am no different. My town isn’t special. Like many other “towns,” it has a bed, television, a dresser and closet to store your clothes, and a gaming console if you’re interested in that. On my window sill, I have many books. On my dresser I have miscellaneous items like a blacklight, usually my keys, and a spare charger. I have cards for various events and celebrations, mostly from past birthdays, but some from graduations. On my TV stand there are many video games that I don’t play very often, and my town has windows that I rarely ever look out of during the day. I only ever...
