Police National Night Out Events Announced


The 37th annual National Night Out is being celebrated on Tuesday, October 6 this year. The COVID-19 pandemic may have communities celebrating a little differently and later in the year, but one thing remains the same and that is the partnerships and camaraderie that are strengthened as police and citizens unite in neighborhoods.

Community engagement has been especially challenging this year. This annual community-building campaign is an opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances and enhance relationships with the goal of keeping neighborhoods safe.

Join your neighbors and friends in events scheduled throughout Baltimore County. There will be food, games, vehicle parades, and visits from police officers. The theme at each event will be the same – to keep your community, businesses and visitors safe.

Turn on your porch light on Tuesday, October 6 to show your support. And remember another safety precaution when gathering this year – wear a mask, practice social distancing and wash your hands.

BCPS Working on Plan for High School Fall Sports


Baltimore County Public Schools (BCPS) Superintendent Dr. Darryl L. Williams said he is consulting with BCPS officials about the possibility of starting high schools this fall.

This is after State Superintendent of Schools Dr. Karen Salmon announced that schools may resume high school fall sports as soon as Oct. 7.

“I recognize that athletics plays a vital role in the educational success and engagement of students,” Williams said. “In light of the State Superintendent’s announcement, I am consulting with our Office of Athletics, athletic directors, Return to Play Committee, and Baltimore County Health Department to determine if and how adjustments to our plan can be safely made. If adjustments can be safely made, we will share those adjustments with the community.”

Earlier this summer, BCPS convened a Return to Play Committee. This committee worked with school system medical staff and the Baltimore County Health Department to determine that, based on then-current health conditions, it would be safest for BCPS to begin the year with a virtual coaching and support program and move toward possible in-person athletics during the spring. This approach was endorsed by Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association (MPSSAA) guidance and supported by the MPSSAA’s eventual decision to cancel the start of athletics for fall 2020.

BCPS Reverses Timeline For Staff Return


Baltimore County Public Schools has revised its timeline for a phased-in resumption of in-person learning. The revised timeline calls for staff to return to the school system’s four public separate day schools on Monday, Nov. 2, with students at those schools having the option to begin in-person learning on Monday, Nov. 16.

The schools to be impacted – Battle Monument, Maiden Choice, Ridge Ruxton, and White Oak – serve students with disabilities who receive special education and related services. According to the school system, the return of these students and staff will be closely monitored, and further adjustments will be made as necessary.

The timeline no longer calls for all staff to return to school buildings in October and no longer calls for identified preschool, PreKindergarten, and Kindergarten students to resume in-person learning in November.

“Making plans in this ever-changing landscape is challenging and requires flexibility,” said BCPS Superintendent Dr. Darryl L. Williams. “Through it all, our priority continues to be the health and safety of our students and staff while maximizing learning and wellbeing. We are focused on providing rigorous and engaging instruction for all students and finding ways to provide in-person learning to those students who will benefit most.”

BCPS is seeking feedback from families and staff regarding the revised timeline. Families of students at the four schools slated to physically reopen in November will be surveyed from October 2 – 9 to indicate whether they want their children to return to the school building or continue online instruction. In addition, all BCPS stakeholders may send feedback to reopening@bcps.org for review by the BCPS Reopening Design Team and COVID-19 task force.

State Allows Fall High School Sports to Start Oct. 7


Maryland State Superintendent of Schools Karen B. Salmon, Ph.D. announced the ability for each local school system (LSS) to officially start the interscholastic athletic fall season in Maryland secondary schools beginning Wednesday, Oct. 7

The decision of the State Superintendent was reached after recent discussions with the State Board of Education, the 24 local school system Superintendents, the Executive Director of the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association (MPSSAA), parents, and other stakeholders. Additional considerations included current health metrics and guidance provided by the Maryland Department of Health (MDH) as Maryland continues to operate in the early portion of Stage Three of its Roadmap to Recovery plan.

Local school systems, at their discretion, may opt into commencing a fall competition season or playing all three sport seasons within the Two-Semester Plan option announced by the MPSSAA on Sept. 11. By electing to begin fall sports now, LSSs have the ability to start competitions on Oct. 27 and play into the second week of December.
The decision also affords greater opportunities for winter and spring sport competition during the 2020-2021 academic year.

October 7 Option For Fall Sports

All school systems shall, as soon as possible, provide conditioning and training opportunities utilizing the current available options provided by the MPSSAA.
On October 7, 2020, all local school systems may choose to begin formal fall sport season practices in preparation for a competition season which will begin on October 27. All practices and preparation must be in accordance with Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR) required practice regulations, and all face covering and public health protocols established by the state and local health departments.
The state is expanding the seasonal competition timeframes as previously announced for all winter and spring sports within this plan.
The October 7 option provides for seven weeks of competition for fall sports—including cross country, field hockey, football, golf, soccer, and volleyball:
First available practice date: October 7, 2020
First available competition date: October 27, 2020 (Golf may resume competition on October 7, 2020.)
Last play date: December 12, 2020
Culminating event/tournament: December 14-19, 2020
With the October 7 option, winter sports can begin practice on December 14, and spring sports can begin practice on March 15.
Local school systems that choose not to exercise the October 7 option for fall sports may utilize the Second Semester Plan option as previously announced.

Perry Hall Dollar Tree to Reopen October 1


It has been announced that the Dollar Tree in Perry Hall will reopen on Wednesday, Oct. 1. The store, located at 4327 Ebenezer Road, has been closed since a fire started in the basement in June.

No injuries were reported, but the fire caused more damage than was originally reported.

The store has been closed over the summer as crews have renovated the store. The closure of the Ebenezer location had local residents heading down to the Dollar Trees in Fullerton and Middle River for the summer.

Berkshire Student’s Artwork on Display Statewide


Tree of Life” by Isabella Heinerichs, a Grade 3 student at Berkshire Elementary School, and “Shoes” by Kelsey Anders, a Grade 8 student at Ridgely Middle School, are the two artworks that will represent Baltimore County Public Schools in the 2020 Fall First Lady’s Virtual Gallery.

The exhibition, featuring two pieces of student artwork from each Maryland jurisdiction, is virtual this year. By mid-October, this year’s exhibition will be available for view on the Maryland State Department of Education website.

Each year, the Maryland State Department of Education works with its partners and with Maryland First Lady Yumi Hogan to host bi-annual statewide student artwork competitions and exhibitions. Most years, the art is displayed in the House of Delegates building in Annapolis.
