The new 800 student facility is designed to promote flexible and interactive learning environments, integrate security measures and increased visibility, enhance accessibility and life-safety, incorporate sustainable materials and practices, and provide educational opportunities during both school and non-school hours. Each floor of the three story building houses three classroom wings.
All three classroom wings, P-K through 2nd grade, 3rd through 5th grade and 6th through 8th grade, contain dedicated Collaborative Learning Areas which are centralized to make the spaces open and easily accessible. Larger core-curriculum spaces consisting of the Cafeteria/Dining, Media Center, Administration, Gymnasium, and Community Space are located first floor.
Bay-Brook Elementary/Middle School is part of the 21st Century School Buildings Program which, through legislation, creates a partnership between the City of Baltimore, Baltimore City Board of School Commissioners, Interagency Committee on School Construction and the Maryland Stadium Authority. The partnership leveraged $60M dollars into bond money to support school renovation and replacement projects.
