Safety first for Baltimore City Students!

Baltimore City- Can you believe that our students are about to go on Spring Break already? Where does time go, right? Starting on April 11th through April 18th our kids will be home for the Easter Holiday. Many local families are excited to meet with loved ones over the course of the week. Other residents have decided to play it by ear and remain vigilant during these trying times. Many community members feel confident in their local school district about the upcoming break. Neighbors have faith in their zone schools and believe that Spring Break 2022 will be free from sudden Covid outbreaks. With Covid-19 still in the picture, many residents have voiced their concerns to Baltimore City Board of Education. Everyone wants to be safe ahead of holiday travel this year. Baltimore City Public School has stepped up to the plate to ensure the safety of our entire community once again. The local districts have decided to provide one free Covid-19 test to their students and staff before Spring break even starts. Many parents are confident and reassured about the upcoming break now. There has always been a concern about travel during the pandemic and the possibility of future outbreaks in our classrooms. With the distribution of Covid tests many parents feel at ease about traveling in and around town this year. Each of these free kits will include two tests. Our school leaders highly recommends and encourages testing before returning back to school. Some local public schools in our area will be testing students and staff when they return to the school buildings after break. BBS wants to know your take on our district’s early initiative? With these extra measures in place, how likely are you to travel out of town with your loved ones? Please, let your community know in our comment section below.
