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....

Three time national Emmy Award winning producer/director/writer/editor Margaret Murphy was our guest for our weekly “Conversation with…” series today. Ms. Murphy spoke about her early work as one of the first women producers in network sports as well as one of the original staff for the Nightline Program with Ted Koppel. Her long career continues as she still freelances projects. The students were particularly interested in her work on children’s programming including Sesame Street and in the many prominent people in the news she worked with or interviewed.

The students had an amazing experience at Cafe Gia's Restaurant in Little Italy today. We were invited to lunch by the ACIM of Maryland- American Citizens for Italian Matters and were joined by members and longtime friends of the school Jean Gallo and Valerie Meola. While enjoying a delicious meal, Giovanna Aquia Blatterman shared stories with us about her journey with her family from Sicily through Ellis Island to Baltimore. She talked about the challenges her family faced and the successes they have had while staying rooted in Baltimore's Little Italy including the founding of Cafe Gia's. Giovanna also shared about the multicultural heritage of Sicilians and its ties to people and cultures throughout Africa and Europe. Several students who were the first generation of their family to be born in this country shared their common experiences and all shared about why they chose The Community School. We are thankful for the enduring support that our school gets from the Italian Community who is always eager to reach back and give a hand up to those trying to improve their lives. Today, we are especially thankful for Jean, Val and the members of ACIM for enabling this wonderful experience and to Giovanna for her delicious food, kind hospitality and generous sharing of stories. ...
