Lutherville Lab Report

What's gone down & what's coming up at the leopards' lair.

January 13, 2023

Lutherville Families,

We had a full week at Lutherville!

This week we were glad to host our Executive Director, Mr. Steve Bender, for a learning walk through classrooms on Tuesday. He was very impressed with the instruction at Lutherville, noting the high levels of student engagement, print-rich learning environments, and active, seamless student support. I am very proud of our students and staff and glad Mr. Bender could see what I see every day at Lutherville.

On Friday, our Kindergarten students enjoyed a trip to the Fire Museum! Be sure to check out the gallery below.

As COVID cases rise in the community, I want to remind that BCPS no longer sends Community Notices for individual cases, but we will send a notice if we are deemed to have an outbreak. This change in practice was first shared in the November 11th Lab Report.

For 3rd grade parents -- CoGat assessment family reports were distributed to 3rd grade students today and should be in your child's green folder.

Middle School Boundary Study

Passing along the following message from BCPS:

The committee charged with considering boundary options for Central and Northeast area middle schools will be meeting between January 12 and March 29, 2023.

The purpose of the boundary study is to establish an attendance area for the new Northeast area middle school, expand the attendance area for Pine Grove MS following the construction of its addition, and to provide capacity relief to participating Central and Northeast Area middle schools.

The schools included in this study are:

Cockeysville Middle School
Dumbarton Middle School
Golden Ring Middle School
Loch Raven Academy
Middle River Middle School
Parkville Middle School
Perry Hall Middle School
Pine Grove Middle School
Ridgley Middle School
Stemmers Run Middle School

The public is invited to attend meetings or view the proceedings online. All information, including a calendar of meeting times and all meeting materials, may be found on the Central and Northeast Area Middle School Boundary Study Web site.

Spanish translation services will be provided at each meeting. Additional translation services will be made available upon request to our office if received at least 72 hours prior to the scheduled meeting time.

Thank you for your engagement during this process.

Kindergarten had a blast at the fire museum!
