Everyone was really happy to have Ms. Leandra and her weekly art seminar back for the new term! Leandra brings a lifetime of experience as an artist and over 25 years teaching at Loyola High School to our students. We are looking forward to seeing the artistic creativity of our students on display this year! Thank you Leandra!...
The students were very fortunate to have special guest lecturer Dr. Kathleen Riley come in from Delaware yesterday to speak to the American Sign Language classes. ASL I learned about the basic function of the ear, hearing loss, and treatment and technology such as the cochlear implant. Dr. Riley then spoke to both ASL classes about genetics and deafness. This really enhanced the understanding of those studying biology as well. Dr. Riley is adjunct professor in audiology at Salus University and the University of Delaware and has spent her lifetime working as an audiologist with deaf children mostly through the Delaware School for the Deaf. She has worked with Peggy Lashbrook for many years. One of the special features of Peggy's ASL classes is a focus on deaf culture and this was also an important part of today's presentation. Thank you Kathi and Peggy! ...

Thank you to all of our friends at Baltimore Center Stage for inviting us to attend the play Our Town today! It was an amazing performance that captivated all of the students. It was entertaining and thought provoking at the same time. This contemporary and homegrown version of the Thornton Wilder work was interpreted and made recognizable for our students by director Stevie-Walker Webb, the actors and all those who put on the performance. The play is running through early October and we unanimously recommend that you go see it! Center Stage has enhanced the educational experience of our students for years through inviting us to attend their plays, providing playwriting seminars, giving a private tour of their departments and facility and by their staff visiting our school for conversation. We are so grateful for Baltimore Center Stage!! ...
Tonight had to be one of the best Sponsor/Student meetings we ever had! There was a lot of personal sharing by students, parents and sponsors about overcoming difficulties on the path to success. The support and sense of community were inspiring. The meeting started with an advanced special preview of TCS Student News for this week by Chase and Kevin that received rave reviews! This year is off to a great start! We have much to be thankful for! ...
We had a really terrific "Conversation with.." two recent alumni today - Claude Nicholson (Class of '21) and Ronan Guilfoyle (Class of '22). They talked about their experiences in college as well as at TCS. The students had a lot of questions about both. Claude and Ronan gave a lot of advice and insight into how to make the most of your years at TCS and how it will prepare you for life and college if you do. Ronan is in college with a dual major in Cinematic Arts and English. Claude is in his second year at Loyola University in a 5 year Bachelor's/Master's program in accounting. It was a real pleasure having these two graduates in for a conversation. We are very proud of them. ...
