Baltimore City Schools

‏"I once considered teaching as a career, and every summer during my college years I was a counselor to elementary school students at one of the city-sponsored reading camps. The camp at Margaret Brent Elementary School (now Margaret Elementary/Middle School) in Charles Village was the city's only ESL (English as a Second Language) summer program, welcoming children from Southeast Asia, the Middle East and beyond... It was here where I fell in love with the Charles Village neighborhood and later lived across the street from the school for 10 years."
