The curriculum for the Baltimore City Public School System is the Maryland State Curriculum.  Students in every grade will be taught using the curriculum through a variety of resources that are research based.  For mathematics instruction, EMES will implement Math Works and Scott-Foresman Mathematics, in all grades.

SCHOOL SONG

Eutaw-Marshburn

You’re a grand old school
With some high minded rules
That forever and ever will stand.
You’re the leader of
The things we love.
Eleven, you really are grand!
All our hearts are true
And our teachers are, too.
With never a brag or a boast
If old acquaintance be forgot
Eutaw-Marshburn, we love you most.
