Also, schools must have an improvement rating of “maintaining or improving” or a grade of “C” or above for the 2018/19 school year to qualify for this award.
“Parent, family and community involvement – there’s no better partnership to assure a high-quality education for our students,” said BCPS Superintendent Robert W.

When families, businesses, communities and schools work together, students are more successful and the entire community benefits.”
