The Howard County Public School System's (HCPSS) Strategic Call to Action: Learning and Leading with Equity serves as the foundation for all HCPSS decisions. The strategic plan refects the priorities of our students, staff, families and community partners because each play an important role in fulflling our mission, vision and goals.

Our Educational Partnerships Annual Report, 2018–19 highlights how more than 1,000 businesses, nonprofts, government agencies and other community organizations have joined with HCPSS schools and program offces to support Equity, Diversity, Student-Centered Practices, Inclusive Relationships, and Responsive and Effcient Operations. Together we prepare every child to achieve. EQUITY

The foundation of Learning and Leading with Equity: The Fierce Urgency of Now is providing the access, opportunities and supports to help students, families and staff reach their full potential by removing barriers to success.

Famed urban planner Jim Rouse included equity as a core component of his vision for developing "a garden for growing people"—the planned community of Columbia. This value continues as many community organizations join with HCPSS to uplift the talents, abilities and experiences that make each individual unique.

Having a caring, positive role model can make a significant impact on the lives of students. Leadership Howard County invited HCPSS students to their Big Event to hear author Liz Murray’s inspiring story of going from “homeless to Harvard,” and the important role that teachers played during her journey.

Hundreds of HCPSS students benefit from the support of Howard County fraternities and sororities who collaborate with school staff to promote academic excellence, motivation, college preparation and leadership skills. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity are just a sampling of the Panhellenic organizations providing mentoring programs, scholarships, donations to classrooms, annual school supply drives and reading programs. For more than 15 years, HCPSS has benefitted from the award winning A+ Partners in Education partnership with the Howard County Library System (HCLS). The A+ student card gives every student automatic, direct access to HCLS eContent and materials to use for class projects and homework assignments. The libraries offer opportunities for students to participate in programs ranging from reading and spelling to STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and ingenuity challenges.

The Central Branch hosted high school students at its interactive Undesign the Redline exhibit, which explored how the effects of structural racism and classism in real estate and lending in the 1930s have persisted until today. Exhibit participants were encouraged to combat discrimination and dismantle unjust policies and practices. Photo: Courtesy of Howard County Library System/Geoffrey S. Baker

4 HCPSS Educational Partnerships 2018–19 Annual Report In celebration of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s legacy, staff from Johns Hopkins University (JHU) participated in their second annual day of service by volunteering at the Homewood Center. JHU staff organized storage closets, sorted items in a food pantry, installed bulletin boards, inventoried library books and restored artwork tables. Homewood staff especially appreciated the volunteers’ service, as their school does not have a PTA.

Nearly one fourth of Howard County students qualify for federally funded free and reduced meals (FARMs) provided by the school system. HCPSS is collaborating with Comcast to help get the word out about the variety of services available to students eligible for FARMs, such as free SAT and ACT registration fees, reduced summer camp fees and discounted internet access.

Programs of the Community Action Council of Howard County— Prepare for Success, Head Start and Food Bank—offer essential assistance for school supplies, preschool and food so that students can come to school ready to learn.

HCPSS encourages all students to develop their passion for the arts and perform within the community. The Inner Arbor Trust hosts an annual Jazz in the Woods event at the Chrysalis in Merriweather Park for middle and high school musicians. Professional musicians from the Columbia Orchestra, Strathmore, Maryland Winds and many others play side-by-side with students at local concerts.

For more than 10 years, Oakland Mills Middle School students and staff have been volunteering with Rebuilding Together Howard County to complete renovation projects and urgent repairs for county homeowners. Through this initiative, students help create safe, warm and healthy homes for community members in need.

HCPSS Educational Partnerships 2018–19 Annual Report 5 DIVERSITY At HCPSS, embracing diversity means recognizing, accepting and respecting that individuals come from many different life experiences with various frames of reference. While we value unique perspectives and individual differences, we also value the commonalities we all share. Community organizations contribute their expertise and initiatives to help HCPSS advance and embrace diversity among students, teachers and staff.

Since the 1950s, the county’s population has diversified and increased more than tenfold, making HCPSS a majority-minority school system. To help ensure that the system reflects the diverse values and unique perspectives of the community, Superintendent Michael J. Martirano created a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Advisory Board. Members of the advisory, including representatives from the African American Community Roundtable, Howard County Muslim Council, Jewish Federation of Howard County, NAACP Howard County Branch, People Acting Together in Howard (PATH), PFLAG Columbia-Howard County and others meet with the Superintendent to provide guidance on how to better foster an inclusive learning and work environment and to grow a diversified workforce.

Local businesses are looking for new talent while diversifying their workforce. The Superintendent’s Program Innovation Advisory Board connects industry leaders with educators to provide robust program offerings and align curriculum with industry trends, so students are prepared to participate in the workforce of the 21st century. The Fort Meade Alliance, IntelliGenesis, KCI Technologies, Leidos, National Security Agency, STEER Tech and U.S. Cyber Command all emphasize the need to encourage more students, and especially students not currently represented, to pursue STEM fields. Members of the Alliance spoke to students about career opportunities in information technology, engineering and cybersecurity, plus the skills and decision-making necessary to obtain a security clearance.

Hundreds of representatives, including those from the Howard County Executive Office, Howard County Council, Howard County Office of the State's Attorney, Maryland General Assembly and many other organizations, serve as judges. Howard County remains a national leader in implementation of the SCH at the elementary level.

The annual Unheard Perspectives Showcase features students in Grades 3–5 who answered the question, "Which African-American innovator has had a significant impact on your life?" The National Great Blacks in Wax Museum, Howard County Historical Society, Maryland Historical Society, Center for Civic Education and others serve as resources for students preparing for the performance-based challenge.

HCPSS is fortunate to have the support of many community partners who work with educators to inspire and excite students with a broad range of relevant and authentic experiences.

Each year, the Howard County Living Farm Heritage Museum hosts Our Environment in Our Hands, a program for more than 500 fourth grade students to explore concepts such as stream health, soil health and Maryland native wildlife. Approximately 50 volunteers from many county organizations, including Howard County Master Gardeners and Master Naturalists, Howard County Watershed Stewards Academy, Howard County Office of Community Sustainability and Howard County Soil Conservation District guide students through a variety of field experiences, designed by the HCPSS Elementary Science Office.

The Robinson Nature Center, Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park and Maryland Agricultural Education Foundation also offer outdoor education experiences that help develop and strengthen students’ appreciation of nature and passion for environmental stewardship. For more than 15 years, the Howard County Conservancy and HCPSS have worked together to give students hands-on experiences to learn about the wonders of the natural world, land preservation and responsible environmental stewardship. More than 18,000 students visit the Conservancy each year to learn about the local watershed, soil science, monarch butterfly migration, Maryland reptile and amphibian habitats, the importance of biodiversity and more. Additionally, Howard County officials and community leaders look forward to receiving the annual Howard County Watershed Report Card produced by HCPSS ninth grade student scientists who collect and analyze local schoolyard and stream data, while examining local policies.

Gifted and Talented students can learn advanced research-level methodologies, college-level writing and oral presentation skills by working with business leaders on an original research study or creative production. Potomac Valley Orthopaedic Associates, Aerotek, American Film Institute, National Institutes of Health, TLV Tree Farm and U.S. Army Research Laboratory are just a handful of partners providing students real-world experience and knowledge in preparation for a possible career.
