Learning all about the immune response system was the topic of the day in the 2nd in a series of Immunology Lectures presented to the Year 2 Class by Dr. Alan Scott. Dr. Scott is a professor in the Molecular Microbiology and Immunology Department at the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health. Not only did the students learn about the specific components of the body’s immune system and how they coordinate to provide protection against pathogens, but also learned about breakthrough research that is taking place in the field.

Students were able to get a first hand look at 2 new development projects going up in Remington. Thibault Manekin, partner in Seawall Development, extended an invitation to the school to get a personal tour of the Remington Row and R House projects. In addition to touring and learning about an active construction site, the students heard about the development process, final plans, and philosophy behind the projects. After the tour, the students wrote about the experience. Everyone was excited at the chance for this opportunity. However, there were many sobering comments like this one from student and lifelong Remington resident Kelsey Larrimore who wrote, “It is so amazing to see the process of building something and watching it evolve. I liked the way the building was set up. It has a lot of great things to offer. I wish that the lower classes had the opportunity for things like this. We get pushed to the side and nothing that is being built will impact us. We won’t even get the chance to experience all the great things that’s happening around us.” We appreciated the kindness during the tour shown by Thibault and the folks at Seawall.
Each day after school you can find many of the students from TCS at the Mission Fit gym working out. This Remington program provides a great opportunity for them to improve their physical strength and stamina after a long day in class. Recently WJZ featured Mission Fit in a story that included an interview with TCS student Janiah Tillery. Students Marcus McKeever, Donald Lacy, and Donavin Hooper can also be seen working out in the background. Special thanks to Mission Fit founder Wendy Wolock for opening up this opportunity for our students. To watch the story follow this link: WJZ Story on Mission Fit
