Enrollment

City Springs Elementary /Middle School is a neighborhood charter school operated by the Baltimore Curriculum Project. We’re a different type of charter school. Other charter schools are lottery only. We serve our neighborhood zone first, then we go to a lottery.

Who Can Enroll?

Any Kindergarten through 8th grade child living or moving into the neighborhood zone may enroll at any time, without participating in a lottery.

If you live in this zone, call or email the school to enroll.

We also serve non-zoned elementary and middle school students throughout Baltimore City.

If there are no vacancies at the time, students can be added to a waitlist or upcoming lottery.
