Ken Bancroft shared his personal knowledge and experience with the Biology class today. The ninth and tenth grade students are studying human body systems. Currently they are focusing on the cardio-respiratory systems.
A part of our approach is to make all learning real and to illustrate this with stories that connect the learning to real life. Mr. Ken took a break from his volunteer duties checking math and shared with the class his personal health story with cardiac issues and procedures as well as his experience gained as the President of St. Agnes Hospital. It was very informative, held the students’ interest and added to their understanding.
Thank you Ken!

TCS Alum Dyrrell Moon joined the students for a Conversation on Friday. Dyrrell just got back from the former Soviet Republic of Azerbaijan where he was part of a monitoring team for recent national elections. This is part of the international work that Dyrrell has been doing since graduating from Howard University.

The students were especially interested because they are currently studying this part of the world as part of this year’s World Geography class.

It’s always a special occasion when TCS alumni come back to share their experiences with the current students. Thank you Dyrrell!

We have formed a partnership with a youth organization in Liberia, on the West Coast of Africa, called B4YT – Burning Barriers Building Bridges Youth Theatre. Today we had our 2nd Zoom session where our students met with their young people. This session was focused on education where each group sharing both their personal experiences and the situation in our respective cities and countries. It was a meaningful and educational experience for all.

We deeply appreciate the young people of B4YT and their staff Mr. Silas and Ms. Hannah and our own staff liaison Ms. Janiah for co-ordinating this effort. We also want to recognize and thank JHU Center for Social Concern Director Dr. Jasmine Blanks Jones who introduced our two groups.

The Women of Done Construction were back in the house yesterday! The students are each building, wiring and staining a lamp for their spring project.

The session started with a video of the folks from Done preparing the materials in their workshop so the students could see the project from the beginning. After a review of the tools and their proper usage was presented, the students were able to pick from a selection of types of wood from cedar to walnut to oak and even an exotic wood from Africa. Then, each got to work drilling, gluing, screwing and sanding their individual lamps. The project will take two more sessions to complete.

What an exciting project packed with skills! Thank you Beth Pointer, Sarah Elder, Catesby Taliaferro, Kristin Carbone and Sarah Michaels!
