A look back on the one year anniversary of the Russian war on Ukraine is this week’s cover story on this week’s edition of TCS Student News. Catch up on news around the school including a special conversation with 3 time national Emmy award winner Margaret Murphy, a special immunology seminar with Dr. Al Scott from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Medicine and the always popular Theatre with the Lyric and Art with Ms. Leandra seminars.
Our friends from Done Construction were back at the school this month for a fresh home repair workshop. Today’s seminar was on all the ins and outs of painting. A good amount of time was spent on explaining all of the tools and tricks of the trade. Then everyone went outside to use what they learned on the practice wall built for this occasion! So far this year the students have learned about tools, electrical repairs and some plumbing as well.
Thank you Beth, Sarah Junior, Catesby, Kristin and Sarah Senior
Today, we welcomed back regular guest teacher Dr. Alan Scott, Professor of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. He answered a broad range of questions from the students about the immune system, vaccines, various diseases as well as breakthroughs in research and treatment. Dr. Scott has been coming to the school for years several times each term to teach special seminars on issues such as COVID, monkeypox, and herd immunity and other sessions that are just question and answer periods. Today’s session was part of the current health curriculum on the body’s systems and was both enlightening and sparked the student’s interest even more. Thank you Dr. Scott.
Check out this week’s TCS Student News with a lead story on the environmental impact of the train derailment in Ohio. Hear about some great conversations this week including with Ms. Giovanna, owner of Gia’s restaurant in Little Italy where we were hosted by Jean Gallo and Val Meola from ACIM. We also had a “Conversation with…” Megan Emdad and Christian from Gary Bozel & Associates. It was a busy week with a financial literacy seminar and more!
There was a lively “Conversation with…” Megan Emdad and Christian Malone today from the accounting firm of Gary R. Bozel & Associates (GRB&A). The discussing included a lot about finance, careers in the accounting and business fields, and much about paths to success and fulfillment in the world of work. Gary Bozel and Megan have advised the school for many years now and handle all of the accounting needs beyond the very capable bookkeeping of Ms. Leah, our own volunteer office manager.
It was a lively discussion and the students had loads of questions after devouring the great lunch which Megan and Christian brought.. We appreciate our long relationship with GRB&A and the generous sharing of time by Megan and Christian.
