Govans Elementary School

Govans Elementary is a neighborhood-zoned charter school that served 441 PreK-5 students in 2017-2018. Govans was a traditional public school until 2014, when the Baltimore Curriculum Project took over operation of the school as a charter school, retaining its neighborhood zone. BCP also operates the Govans 21st Century Community Learning Center, which includes a STEM-based after school program serving 120 students, four days a week. Beginning in the 2019-2020 school year, as part of the 21st Century Facilities plan, the school community will move into swing space while the existing facility is demolished and rebuilt. Retaining enrollment during the transition year, as well as building a pipeline to grow enrollment when the school moves back into a new, larger facility, will be critical to maximizing the opportunity presented by a new facility in a diverse neighborhood zone. This grant provided funding for the Community School Coordinator position, which has responsibility for enrollment outreach.
