We were all honored today to have Wendel Patrick come to our school to share his art and work as well as stories about his life.  Mr. Patrick teaches at the famed Peabody Music Conservatory and has performed and lectured around the world. Students were able to experience his work on the renowned "Out of the Block" series from public radio as well as his music and a special video he produced with jazz saxophonist Scott Paddock. Mr. Patrick encouraged the students to think about themselves and how they spend their time with this challenging quote, "Whatever you spend your time doing, that's what you are." Everyone was so engaged with this conversation that it went well beyond the time set aside, so Mr. Patrick is coming in again on Monday morning for a wrap up where the students get to speak about the impact of his presentation. Wendell was invited to the school by TCS Trustee Fleesie Hubbard who also attended the seminar. You can check out Mr. Patrick's website by clicking this link WendelPatrick.com...

The room was packed as students and their sponsors gathered for the first meeting of the new term. It was a chance for each to meet each other and especially for the new students and sponsors to learn from the experiences of those who have been active with the school prior to this year. Several new students shared their observations after a week in class and all expressed their enthusiasm and commitment for the new year....

It was terrific to welcome everyone to the first day of the new term.  There are new faces in the class with Brooke, Garrett, Kirsten, Olivia, Sara, Shane, and Spencer joining the school. We're proud to have Sadie, Vernon, Dyrrell, Janiah, Chris, Daj'a, Donald, Jordan, Marcus, Caleb, India, and Donavin back at the school again. The students also met a new teacher at the school, Noah Saganski.  We are all looking forward to a great year!...

Here it is for all to see - the building work is done!  The entire outside of the school buildings has been redone and a new awning went up to cap this project off.  There are a number of other changes too with the addition of a third classroom, modifications in the student kitchen, shelving on the greenhouse deck, and a variety of other projects completed this summer.  This was funded entirely through contributions made to the school in this past year. We are very thankful for the support of so many people as we continue to provide the best learning environment for our students that we are able....

The little red school house is being transformed! We've had a problem for years with the brick on the exterior of the building wearing away and moisture wicking into the building, potentially causing a health hazard.  After searching for an affordable and lasting solution, we settled on a product called EIFS, a stucco like product. The new surface will not only solve this problem for many years to come, but also improve our energy efficiency and give us a new look. We are thankful for the effort of all of those working to make this happen especially Ed Gavin and the crew at CSC Construction along with the craftsman at Carter Contracting. Though the building will have a new look, it's the same great program.  Just like we ask of our students, we do the best with what we have and work to improve ourselves to the best of our ability each day....

After entering a writing piece developed in Mr. Don's writing class at The Community School, student Sadie Greenwood was a finalist in a writing contest held as part of the 2016 Urban Squash Individual Nationals. Sadie participated through SquashWise, a local youth program that has worked with her for several years.  This summer Sadie is participating in a five-week research course at the University of Baltimore that will examine "Issues of Inequality in Housing in Baltimore." We are very proud of Sadie's hard work and talent!...

There will be a special play performed today at the Single Carrot Theatre that will include TCS student Janiah Tillery.  Janiah has been part of a 2 week ensemble class at SCT along with a group of high school students from the Baltimore area.  We are especially grateful to Genevieve de Mahy and the folks at Single Carrot for providing scholarships once again this year to enable our students to participate. We're proud of you Janiah!...

Awarded a coveted spot at the Telluride Sophomore Seminar, student Dyrrell Moon is in Bloomington, Indiana for the next six weeks. This seminar is in its twenty-fourth year and this summer will focus on "The Black Struggle for Freedom: An Interdisciplinary Perspective." Dyrrell is getting a college experience staying in the dorms and studying at Indiana University.  He is enjoying living and working with a diverse group of students from across the country as they participate in lectures, discussions, research and debates. It is a real honor and once-in-a-lifetime experience for Dyrrell. We are all very proud of him!...
