Northeast Boundary Study Continues With Updated Maps, Committee Meetings

BALTIMORE COUNTY - The Northeast area Boundary Study, tasked with establishing an attendance area for the new Northeast middle school and expanding the attendance area for Pine Grove middle school, is moving forward.

“These two projects will relieve overcrowding at middle schools in the Central and Northeast regions,” BCPS said in a letter to parents.

On Wednesday, February 22, the boundary committee will hold its fourth of five meetings to determine which students will have the opportunity to attend the new northeast area middle school, now under construction. The meeting will be held at Parkville High School.

At previous meetings, the committee worked to identify opportunities and challenges presented by the boundary changes.
