January 19,2024 school will be closed due to inclement weather.
Have a safe weekend. See you on Monday!

Just a reminder.... The month of January we are collecting can goods in exchange for service learning hours. 4 can goods equals 1 service learning hour.

Happy Friday! Remember Monday January 15,2024 school is closed for Martin Luther King Day.

If you plan to attend the Basketball Game at Fort Worthington today against Vanguard just know that there may be a $3.00 charge to enter the game.

Tomorrow we will operate on a 2 hour delay schedule. School will start at 9:30am. Be safe, see you in the morning!

Due to the weather Baltimore City has canceled all afterschool activities. Please be safe!

If you don't have the Class Dojo app downloaded it and follow Vanguard so you can know what's happening in our school community.

January 10, 2024 @ 10-12 or 4-6 you can come and get information on this process. You can also get help with filling out the application on site. Please let us know if you plan to attend.
