registration & orientation documents for new families
The links below contain information for families who have been offered, and who have accepted, space at our school for the 2017-18 school year. Please note that you may not register your child unless you have officially been offered space from our lottery and/or waiting list.
Students transferring in to our school from another Baltimore City Public School will not need to complete the new student enrollment forms. Instead, at the end of the school year, they should request a transfer packet from the school they currently attend, and deliver that packet to our office. Our school secretary will advise on whether any additional forms are needed after that.
For questions related to the process of registering a child, or how to complete new student enrollment forms, please contact Mrs. Worrell in our main office at 443-642-3600.

The northern boundary is the 4100 through the 5100 blocks of Belvedere Avenue.
The eastern boundary is the 4400 to 5100 blocks of Pimlico Avenue, extending across the 2500 and 2400 blocks of W. Cold Spring Lane, and continue south through the 3500 to 4200 blocks of Greenspring Avenue.
