In 2024, Baltimore City Public Schools won an Award of Excellence for our district website entry titled "City Schools is Emphasizing the Student Voice"

View a paraphrase of our submission below:

The Office of Communications of Baltimore City Public Schools supports student achievement and organizational excellence by proactively gathering and sharing both accurate and timely information necessary for its audiences to maintain high levels of engagement and awareness.

We achieve this by engaging our community with content that details how the district’s investments in education and wholeness directly correlate with student progress and achievement – we tell our own story.

City Schools prides itself on the organization's commitment to speaking with a single, clear voice that articulates our story—its values, goals, and initiatives. That voice emphasizes the district’s efforts to achieve the outcomes valued by our stakeholders. Our goal is to directly respond to the needs expressed by our community by showing them exactly how we implement change from our students' perspectives.

Thank you to our families and community for your continued engagement with the district's initiatives and shared information. Click here to view the full list of 2024 NSPRA Award Winners in the website category.
