City Springs Elementary / Middle

City Springs Elementary / Middle City Springs is a preK-8 Baltimore City Public charter school operated by the where purple is not a color. It's an attitude!

We believe that all students have talents and can learn through a variety of instructional experiences. We believe that Direct Instruction is the best way for our children to learn. Direct Instruction provides repetition in order for our students to master skills. Once a solid foundation is in place, Direct Instruction connects concepts and builds skills to ensure mastery. We also believe that all

students are unique which should be addressed through in-school and extracurricular programs that develop life skills and leadership qualities and foster self-esteem, self-motivation, and success. We further believe that the home and community should contribute to the total development of our students. We need YOU to share in our vision to help us develop an education for life for our students. We realize that we can achieve our goals by addressing the needs of our students. Their needs fall into these categories: attendance, academic achievement, leadership development, and career or college readiness. Each student needs to work in a classroom that exemplifies the best in learning and in positive human relations, a place where each will find success and meet high expectations in the areas of academic performance and citizenship, a place where students will feel the joy of learning.

Our 8th graders celebrated the end of their time at City Springs with our annual end-of-year trip to New York City.

They explored Times Square, shopped along 5th Avenue, and played soccer and football at the historic Sheep Meadow in Central Park.

Taven Williams won a basketball competition at the Nike Store on 5th Avenue, earning himself a free pair of Nike shoes.

The trip was a terrific way to cap off the end to what has been an amazing year for our 8th graders.

Turning pages and preparing for what's next. ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’œ

At the end of this academic year our 8th Grade Scholars engaged in activities to help them prepare for the big transition to high school. Our guidance counselor, Ms. Watkins, pushed in for a lesson around 9th Grade Readiness to help students understand everything from earning high school credits to best student practices.

Additionally, our 8th graders engage in an English unit called the "High School Readiness Assignment." For this assignment the 8th Grade English teacher, Mr. O, connects with every high school our Scholars are going to identify a book they want their rising 9th graders to read over the summer.

One of our community partners, Phi Sigma Sigma, helped purchase the books for the scholars. Books this year have included Romeo and Juliet, Animal Farm, All American Boys, The House on Mango Street, The Book Thief, I Am Malala, and Lord of the Flies.

Our Scholars explored these books with individual assignments to help them prepare for their 9th grade year so they can start off strong.

On April 28, students released Tortellini back into the wild after caring for him through the 7th Grade โ€œTerrapins in the Classroomโ€ program in partnership with the National Aquarium.

From fall to spring, students learned responsibility, conservation, and the power of hands-on learning โ€” the City Springs way. ๐ŸŒŽโœจ
