Students Produce Intro to TCS Movie

The students put together this video to introduce our program to the young people of the B4YT organization in Liberia, West Africa. We have been developing a relationship with B4YT for over  a year to build friendship and understanding between our youth. This has entered a new stage where each organization will exchange videos every other week  to learn about each other’s lives and the issues that affect them. This video is the first in the series from TCS and was produced 100% by our students.

Conversation with Sean Armstrong aka DJ Face

We were excited to have radio host and acclaimed DJ, Sean Armstrong, back at the school for a Conversation today. Sean, who is also known as DJ Face, is from Baltimore but has performed across the United States and in Africa, Asia and Europe.

Sean shared his journey into music that started when he was very young, though took second place for awhile as he pursued basketball in college and a career in various aspects of retail management. There were many lessons learned along the way that he shared with the students.

It was a real pleasure to have Sean back at the school and we appreciate his generosity of time whenever we ask.

Conversation with Jefferson A. Thomas 2 LT, USAF

Coping with the force of gravity while flying in a fighter jet was just one of the stories that captivated the students in this week’s “Conversation with…” 2nd Lieutenant Jefferson Thomas this week. Lt. Thomas is a recent graduate of the Air Force ROTC program at Texas A & M University who is performing as a recruiter for a year before attending flight school to be a pilot. In addition to talking about the Air Force ROTC program and the opportunities and career that follows, he also shared a good deal about his own family and experiences. It was a dynamic and engaging conversation and we appreciate the generosity of time (and all the merch) that he shared with us.
