Planned Parenthood 2We were fortunate to have Lindsay Roemer and her team of peer educators back at the school today.  CJ, Serena, and Lindsay did a presentation on “Consent and Boundaries.” This seminar examined the critically important issues regarding respecting a person’s boundaries when it comes to sex and also how to make sure that there your partner is fully consenting to sexual activity.  The class watched a terrific short video entitled “Consent: It’s as Simple as Tea.” This was followed by a series of exercises and a discussion.  We appreciate our growing relationship with the youth education team at Planned Parenthood.

Leah CulottaReal stories about war, courage, sacrifice, and fear were shared with the students today by volunteer staff member Leah Culotta.  She told stories about her recently deceased husband, Samuel Culotta, who joined the military at the age of 17 to fight in World War II.  He was in 7 landing invasions in the Pacific during the height of the war with Japan.  Leah shared stories about the horrors he witnessed and how it affected him throughout his life. She also recounted a touching story of how he helped save a young, injured boy  in the Philippines and how they reunited decades later.  Her talk was illustrated with newspaper articles, photos, and even a flag that Mr. Culotta recovered from Saipan during the war.  Leah helped the students understand the real meaning of the holiday as they went into their long weekend.

Dr. Scott 4The last in a 4 part series of lectures by Johns Hopkins School of Medicine Professor Dr. Alan Scott was held today. This lecture focused on the history vaccines and their role in developing immunity and reducing diseases that once killed and crippled millions of people.  An examination of polio and chicken pox and the impact of vaccinations on their eradication was a central part of the talk.  There was also discussion about the anti-vaccine movement and the risk it poses especially to health-vulnerable individuals who are protected by the “herd immunity” from others who are physically able to get vaccines. This was a terrific series for the students by a leading professor in the field and we were very fortunate to have Dr. Scott at the school.  We are looking forward to his return next year.

BeautificationThanks to the kind people at the Parks and People Foundation, we have begun a sidewalk beautification project around the school.  The foundation gave TCS a grant to buy a variety of planters to go around the school building. Through the hard work and leadership of Horticulture Seminar teacher Molly McCullagh and the active assistance of Trustee David Bayer, the students started planting a variety of plants started in the school’s greenhouse as well as hostas donated for this project. Keep posted for the full view of the project when it is done.
