What's Inside
Back-to-School Countdown!
Complete your Annual Student Verification
City Schools families, it's time to complete the Annual Student Verification process in Campus Portal. All student information must be updated or verified, even if there are no changes. If you don't have a Campus Portal account, learn more at: https://www.baltimorecityschools.org/page/campus-portal
This mandatory process ensures accurate information for each student, including name, address, and guardian contact details and enables City Schools to contact you in an emergency, including weather-related school closures; provide important updates by email and robocall; and share important documents such as the annual family guide, Code of Conduct, report cards and more.
Get your immunizations

On Monday, August 12, Hearst Media and the Baltimore Orioles hosted the inaugural Dr. Tim Tooten Stuff the Bus School Supplies Drive at the Baltimore City Public Schools District Office. Community members donated supplies to help City Schools students start the 2024-25 school year strong. The event is named in honor of retired WBAL education reporter Dr. Tim Tooten.
This year, Furley Elementary School was one of the many sites across Baltimore that hosted a National Night Out event. The annual campaign focuses on building community relationships and enhancing cooperation between police and neighborhoods.
Late last school year, the City Schools Office of Equity held its annual BMORE Me conference at Morgan State University. With the theme “Past, Present, and Future,” the event encouraged students to reflect on the past, examine the present, and look forward to the future. The conference, part of a weeklong series, was attended by middle school students and facilitated by high schoolers, alumni, and Office of Equity staff.
Preparing for the return!
Across City Schools, teachers and staff are excitedly buzzing as they gear up to welcome students back into their classrooms and school buildings!
